Hi,
Change in newsfeeds.conf
site ftsfeed
groups alt.*
prog_name C:\WINNT\System32\xmit.exe
type program
To
site ftsfeed
groups alt.*
Once these changes are made, use the command
tellnews reload
Assuming you have completed steps 1-7 in the fts instructions
(http://netwinsite.com/dnews/ftsearch.htm) as previously discussed, this
should hopefully fix the problem.
