Ln -s isn't portable, as I'm sure you know.  Hmmm.

Dear Readers,

I have a problem with bnews's "uurec" command. Every article that
is piped to "uurec" (these articles were sent using sendnews) fails
with the error (in news/lib/errlog):

Nov 11 21:29	Unknown	inews: Cannot get user's name

Any pointers, fixes, diffs etc. appreciated.

Thanks a lot for every help in advance !

Cheers,
Frank

  Interesting...  I hadn't thought about the effects of caching when I said

for i in *; do
	rcp foo my_Sun3_280:/tmp/foo &
done

  I was disappointed and a bit puzzled when multiple copies of a
non-zero-size foo produced a zero-size /tmp/foo.

ps: I was also bemused when my perfmeter window turned solid black - I
should have suspected an r-command would be expensive (:-)).
