Sorry to bother you once more, but I *really* do not understand this. I'm running NNTPcache 2.4.0b2, and it just won't stop expiring. This is the cache area: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused /dev/da1s1e 17369075 88295 15891254 1% 4168 4336822 0% Settings in nntpcache.config: minFilesFreePercent 30 (start expire when 70% of inodes in use) minBlocksFreePercent 5 (start expire when 95% of 1k blocks in use) And this is what happens: Jan 3 21:46:43 newsreader2 nntpcached[5065]: nntpcache.c:488: starting expire task Jan 3 21:46:43 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5066]: expire task awakening Jan 3 22:02:23 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5066]: expire.c:212: usedblocks = 8.5%, usedinodes = 0.1%, maxArtAge = 57s, expire ended Jan 3 22:02:23 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5066]: expire task retiring Jan 3 22:02:23 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5066]: clean shutdown Jan 3 22:02:35 newsreader2 nntpcached[5065]: nntpcache.c:488: starting expire task Jan 3 22:02:35 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5265]: expire task awakening Jan 3 22:18:27 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5265]: expire.c:212: usedblocks = 8.5%, usedinodes = 0.1%, maxArtAge = 57s, expire ended Jan 3 22:18:27 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5265]: expire task retiring Jan 3 22:18:27 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5265]: clean shutdown Jan 3 22:18:32 newsreader2 nntpcached[5065]: nntpcache.c:488: starting expire task Jan 3 22:18:32 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5452]: expire task awakening And it goes on and on and on ... the spool never gets filled.
