Alime.139 net.news utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!ihnss!houxi!houxg!lime!martin Thu Jan 21 22:29:32 1982 Duplicate article of a different type I have an intresting bug in the way i recieve news here at lime. First a simple map. IHNSS --(ibm link)-- HOUXI --(ibm link)-- HOUXE --(dmc11)-- --(ibm link)-- HOUXG --(dmc11)-- LIME the dmc11's run at 19.2 and the same news article comes into lime via two paths. the timing is dependent on network load but today i noticed that the same digest had come it via houxe and houxg within one second. i think the way this part of the network is set up is a bit wierd, but i think that some form of lock on the /usr/lib/news and /usr/spool/news directories (and thier files) should be put into a next release. martin levy (path as above) ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
