INN FAQ Part 7

NOTE: The maintainers of the INN FAQ stopped publishing in December 1997.
An important update to this topic is provided by Mib Software in the Usenet RKT for Subscribers.

Subject: (7.40) Some local postings don't make it to remote, but others do


Q: My feeds are set up and postings that come from tin make it to the
remote while others e.g. from nn or netscape don't.
I have the following in newsfeeds:

news:*:Tf,Wnm:news.foo.bar.com

A: nn and netscape produce the following path line:

>Path: host!news

while tin gives

>Path: host!user

Now the entry ``news'' in newsfeeds collides with the news in the
Path: header. Change your newsfeeds entry to news.some.com:*:Tf... and
it should work.
