   I have recently installed Cnews on my BSD machine with taylor UUCP
(I have not even gotten to UUCP problems yet) and when I post to a group
I news goes chunking away and no longer produces error messahes (initaly
I had a permission problem).  I know that after Inews has done its thing
I should not be seeing the post in the group it was posted to until I
run newsrun.    as I understand it newsrun takes the queued up articles
and puts them in their proper places (the .../spool/news/... directory).

   well, it is not, and I really haven't a clue, I can't even find the
queued up news really, I do see some files in the
.../spool/news/in.coming directory but they are not the file I posted.
can anyone out there provide some guidance/suggestions?

  feel free to post or E-mail but E-mail is perfered seeing has how I
obvioulsy don't have news running properly yet. ;)
