I believe if you wean trn from .nntpauth the file won't be deleted and both trn and nntplist will be happy. If it doesn't go, I'd recommend you to run nntplist with the env variable DOTDIR set to a reserved location that contains a copy of (maybe a symbolic link to?) .nntpauth as a workaround. > Without .nntpauth, Pnews also fails. It's odd. I can't find any shred of NNTP authorization in my Pnews script. I am also using trn 4.0-test76. -- Regards, | /^^^\ Yury | (| , , |) | | * | E-mail: yury.burkatovsky at telrad dot co dot il | \_-_/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
