Good Day!
Newbie to Dnews upgraded an old trial to purchased 5.6.e3 on NT4 SP6a
When I run an expire I get this:
------------------------------

24 13:47:55 0:info: group_read: sambarzone.cdev took 0 seconds, 1943

nohits=1 xover=1
24 13:47:55 0:info: Expire_xover returning
24 13:47:55 0:info: Tell master to patch this group
------------------------
Need to know what "patch this group" means.
Havent't found any reference in the docs.
Hi, a slightly misleading message, it's something you don't need to
know about, but to explain. During the expire process the expire process
re-writes the xover index for a group, then incase new items arrived while
it was re-writing that index, it tells the master process to check and
if necessary correct the last few entries in the xover data so it's
exactly up to date.
Anyway, it's all automatic, the log lines are not intended to suggest that
you need to take any action :-)
Happy new year.
