Problems with cnfs buffers addiction

Good morning everybody.

I'm currently running an inn2.2.2 installation under solaris 2.7
I am trying to add 4 more cnfs buffers to a metacycbuff in the existing
cnfs system.

I did the following, being news user (permissions and ownership are ok
with the instructions
of the inn2.2.2 install file)

1) dd if=/dev/zero of=/<path-to-buffer> bs=1k count=1024000
(I have already 16 buffers of this size currently working)

2) edit the ~news/etc/cycbuff.conf file, adding the update both in the
cycbuff section and in
the metacycbuff section, with the correct syntax (it's easy)

3) I ran the
ctlinnd reload all reason
command, to have these new settings on line

When I run the cnfsstat command, I have the following output
(don't care for * matching)

Class CLASS2  for groups matching "*", article size min/max: 0/1000000

Illegal division by zero at /usr/local/news/bin/cnfsstat line 339,
<STOR> chunk 77.
 Buffer , len: 0.00 Mbytes, used: 0.00 Mbytes

Where Buffers 4..16 (without 9 and 10) are already existing and working,
and I added buffers BUFF17 BUFF18 BUFF19 BUFF20.
These new buffers appear to be not active.

Did I forgot something?
Where is the problem?

Greetings,
Mauro
