nntpsend and innxmit

[Eilko Bos]

Hi,

I am facing a very irritating problem which has without doubt an obvious
cause.

I have a newsserver 'a' (INN 1.4 22-Dec-93) and a newsserver 'b'
(INN 2.2.2 13-Dec-1999).
I have localgroup (mygroup.*). When I post an article on server 'a' in the
group 'mygroup.test', it should be fed to newsserver 'b' using nntpsend and
innxmit. But it's not ;(( I cannot find the cause of this problem, does any
one of you have any clue about this?
 
Below are some configfiles and transfer-output.
 
------ From newsserver 'a' ------
"inn.conf"
[....]
pathspool:              /var/spool/news/
patharticles:           /var/spool/news/articlespathoverview:           /var/spool/news/over.view
pathoutgoing:           /var/spool/news/out.going
pathincoming:           /var/spool/news/in.coming

After posting an article:

------ nntpsend -d output ------

I did not see what I expected, e.g. something like 'ihave'. Does anybody have
an explanation for this?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Eilko Bos.
