The gatewaying stuff I have left in the mailman crontab and there's not anyway it should be able to create those files as 'root', unless the wrapper's doing it. In any event, I have no idea what's causing this. As for 'usenet software' I'm not using anything but the gatewaying software. The usenet server's not on the same machine, it's at a different ISP...and again, like I said, each of those files is specifically a file full of each usenet posting that I have gatewayed. I'm stumped. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
