Aunc.1500 net.news utzoo!decvax!duke!unc!smb Tue Dec 1 19:56:15 1981 news bug (cwruecmp.22 followup) I've suggested in the past that the #defines in param.h be parameterized with '#ifdef vax' -- you can use much larger tables, and considerably improve performance if address space isn't a problem. In fact, you may want to increase ARTSIZ and NNREC on your own -- with the volume of news we get, the defaults are far too low. You should also get the latest netnews A from duke; it's much faster. What puzzles me about your bug report is that I thought news prevented the creation of subscription lists that are too long. Did someone edit .uindex manually? ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
