I just tried to get NNTP cache running on BSDI, and I'm getting this error message: May 24 17:59:52 vineyard ./nntpcached[8770]: error in config file /etc/nntpcache .config: variable used is not known (3): string accessFile /etc/nntpcache.access : Undefined error: 0 This is with the standard config file. When I replaced the standard config file with /dev/null, this is what I got: May 24 18:02:51 vineyard ./nntpcached[8808]: nntpcache.stats corrupted (Bad file descriptor) May 24 18:02:51 vineyard ./nntpcached[8808]: nntpcache.c:419 waiting for connect ions on port 119...
