Do you also have a site me? If not add one, e.g.
site me
groups *
site newsfeed.skycache.com
type dfeed
groups *
exclude *skycache.com
onlyposts
And for sending local posts upstream it's better not to use dfeed
generally, so change
it like this:
site me
groups *
site newsfeed.skycache.com
type builtin
groups *
exclude *skycache.com
onlyposts
So then restart dnews, and try making a post, you should then see the
figures change
even if they only show that the post failed to go. If you still see
nothing but zero's then
you have some kind of filtering causing a problem, examine dnews.log and
dnews.in after
making the post to see if it gives any errors.
If you still don't find anything get back to me with the tellnews status
and dnews.log after a local post.
