     Those of you who are currently
using RAUUCP and know what you're doing, I need some help.  I'm in
the process of linking UUCP to a BBS, and can't get expire or
readnews to run.  HOWEVER, postnews works fine.

     The attributes of /dd/sys/uucp/active are: -d -s -pw pr -pe w r
-e

     The error returned from expire and readnews is:

     readactive: can't open active file

     I've studied the source, but can't seem to find a reason why
this would be generating an error, since the file exists, is in the
proper format, and has attributes with permission that the program
wants.

     Anybody have any ideas?
