(Posted on behalf of Robert Nicholson, who now has a working NeXT, but no  
news feed.  Yet).

I am currently trying to get INN up and running on a NeXT under NS3.0.  I  
have the following questions:

1.  Am I supposed to install the new syslogd (it currently will not  
compile)

2.  With signal() defined as returning a "void" innd doesn't run.   
However, when I define it as returning "int" innd works but every signal()  
results in a warning.

3>  If I just want a basic news and mail feed via SLIP to my host how do I  
go about setting up the configuration files.  Is my type of feed a  
"filename" feed?

4.  Do I use LOG_LOCAL7 or LOG_NEWS for syslog.conf's entry?

5.  Is rnews -U the only way spooled news items can be sent?

That's it... Paul
