I have to Linuz systems running INN 1.4. The system 1 called NEWS
receives and send NEWS to our news source. I trying to get this system
to feed a second Linux system NEWS1. I can Telnet to NEWS1 from NEWS
using nntp socket and perform a list. When I run send-nntp -d news1
I get the following:
send-nntp: [29377] begin Wed Jan 3 09:29:34 PST 1996
send-nntp: [29377] begin news1
< 200 news1.sprintnw.com InterNetNews server INN 1.4 20-Mar-93 ready
Can't authenticate with news1, Math argument out of domain of func
Command had non-zero exit status 1

send-nntp: [29377] end news1
send-nntp: [29377] end Wed Jan 3 09:29:36 PST 1996
I've checked to make sure the hosts.nntp has the NEWS hostname which is
MAIL in it along with NEWS. I can by TAIL -f /var/adm/messages see that
the connection is made.
Following the what appears in the messages file:
Jan 3 08:55:32 news1 innd: mail.sprintnw.com connected 15

WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!
Please help!
