I'm still having problems with incoming "news articles" gettng "stuck"
in the feeding computer's spool directory. I now have 7 articles from
January 13 that haven't been distributed to the appropriate directory.
These are the current problem files;
drwxrwxrwx 2 uucp group 272 Jan 14 05:24 mgse
drwxr-xr-x 2 uucp group 144 Jan 14 04:40 rex
$ cd mgse
$ l
total 128
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 18412 Jan 13 17:04 D.mgsecf2333c
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 3475 Jan 13 17:23 D.mgsecf24159
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 9605 Jan 13 18:53 D.mgsecf35bfd
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 5659 Jan 13 19:27 D.mgsecf39273
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 9055 Jan 13 20:23 D.mgsecf431cf
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 3691 Jan 13 23:33 D.mgsecf4fcf3
-rwxrwxrwx 1 uucp group 10614 Jan 13 23:33 D.mgsecf99334
The directory path is /usr/spool/uucp/mgse.
How can I force these files to descramble/uncompress and then have the
correct news groups updated with articles contained within these files?
I have received articles after these and they have all unspooled correctly.
