	I'm using Cnews 18-Jan-1990 on a MicrovaxII running Ultrix32 3.1.
Anyway, we were running out of space on our /var disk so I moved the rec.*
and comp.* groups over to another disk named /var2 and established symbolic
links in /var/spool/news/rec/* and /var/spool/news/comp/* to point to
/var2/news/rec and /var2/news/comp.

	After I did this, the articles in rec and comp aren't being expired
at all.  I'm hand-expiring the articles with find -mtime right now.  Am I
doing something wrong or is expire not supposed to encounter articles
residing on two disks?
