Hi everyone, I successfully compiled nntpcache 0.92.8UL on an Olivetti UNIX SVR4.0 system after some minor modifications to add in ";" or "break" in case statements. I don't think any of those changes affect the logic of the code. However when I try to run nntpcached it doesn't work. I've defined two news servers, one our internal and the other our ISP's. Running it as a daemon in the background results in two nntpcached processes, and I can see there are two sockets open to each server. After some time one of the processes disappears. If I telnet to the nntp port I can connect, but I never get anything back. If I run nntpcache as a foreground process, I again have two nntpcached processes running and after a while one disappears. But in this case after the 2nd process has disappeared I can telnet to the nntp port and actually get articles from both servers. However the caching does not seem to work. I see the following files in my cache directory: -rw-r--r-- 1 news news 0 Sep 26 18:19 cache.history -rw-r--r-- 1 news news 61 Sep 26 18:19 cache.history.dir -rw-r--r-- 1 news news 0 Sep 26 18:19 cache.history.pag drwxr-xr-x 5 news news 96 Sep 26 18:42 news.hk.olivetti.com./ -rw-r--r-- 1 news news 392 Oct 1 17:37 nntpcache.stats drwxr-xr-x 3 news news 96 Sep 26 18:57 oligate.hk.olivetti.com./ There is no cache.mmap file, and under the group directories all I see are xover files. Things worked the same when I had only one server defined. I tried creating an empty cache.mmap file, but that didn't make any difference. Does anyone else have any experience running nntpcache on an SVR4 system who might know what's wrong? I don't really have the time to investigate this myself right now. Thanks for any info., Raju
