G'day Paul,

Replying to a message of Paul Edwards to All on 20/05/97:

I was wrong last night. Once again *everything* I sent to you from
*everyone* is being returned and duped to John.

 PE> Maybe we should do this anyway, before people get too reliant on the
 PE> gating actually working.  Do you want to me to change all of my
 PE> addresses?

 PE> So far you have:

 PE> /etc/uucp/sys:
 PE> system Ujeffg

 PE> /usr/lib/news/newsfeeds:
 PE> Ujeffg/Ujeffg{at}scorpio.rosebay.matra.com.au,Ujeffg

 PE> And an entry in /etc/passwd.

 PE> Shit, I thought there were more than that.  Maybe not.  OK, I've just
 PE> gone and reread what the comments say I'm meant to be putting for the
 PE> newsfeeds file, and it looks like the first Ujeffg is your uucp name,
 PE> and after the "/" comes a list of excluded addresses, ie both 
 PE> Ujeffg{at}scorpio.rosebay.matra.com.au AND Ujeffg are simply site names
 PE> to be excluded.  So all I need to do is replace that
 PE> "Ujeffg{at}scorpio.rosebay.matra.com.au,Ujeffg" with
 PE> "grntrs.dialix.oz.au".  And I'll replace the
"Ujeffg" in both places
 PE> with "grntrs".  Yes?  

No idea. I don't run linux.

 PE> Just give me a date and time that you want that change made.  

Change toight (Wed 21/05/97).

I'll still try tomorrow night as normal. If that fails, I'll try as grntrs.
If all that fails, look for a message via fido :-)

Regards...Jeff (jeff{at}matra.com.au)
