I used these lines:

perl -ne 'chomp; ($a,$b,$_) = split " "; print "$_\n" if $_' history \
         | tr . / > /news/spool/outgoing/list

innxmit darklock2 list

It was after the 2nd line that it blanked. Did I miss something?

In newsfeeds:

innfeed!\
         :!*\
         :Tc,Wnm*:/usr/lib/news/bin/startinnfeed

In nntpsend.ctl:

darklock:darklock.com:2m:-t 180

Should work. :|
