I've managed to compile nn 6.4.0 on an HP 730 running HP-UX 8.07 with a bit of assistance. Now that I've got it installed I need to apply the patches but I'm stuck. Here's the deal. I have no articles in the database so nn reports "No News (is good news)". I was planning to run :patch from within nn but as you can see, I can't get in. I've tried nn -X and various other parameters to no avail. I've read the FAQ, the INSTALLATION and PROBLEMS files that accompany the distribution.. I've tried to use nnpost and postnews to get an article into nn but I get nowhere. Using postnews I get the following error message: defhdrs.awk: no Subject: header! The actual file is this (which does have a subject header): Newsgroups: macom Subject: test post to local group test post using postnews command to local group HPUX 8.07 HP730 OLD_AWK defined What gives? MTC Any clues as to what's wrong? Any hints, suggestions appreciated.
