I tried to run rn from /mit/sipb/linuxbin on a new account that doesn't
have .newsrc and News/ in the homedir.  I get the error:

    Trying to set up a .newsrc file--running newsetup...
    
    Creating /home/foo/.newsrc to be used by news programs.
    /mit/sipb/linuxbin/newsetup: /mit/sipb/lib/rrn/@sys/getactive: No such
    file or directory
    
    Can't create a .newsrc--you must do it yourself.
        
It's not crucial.  But just want to let the right people know.

Thanks,
Gilbert
