import uucp bag file to inn

[Tommy.Fallsen at kongsberg.com]

Hi

Posted to news.software.nntp.

We are setting up a new news server to replace a old WinNT dnews server.
It has a few local groups want to transfer to the new one.
I setup a Ihave feed to the new one specifying the groups like this =
ks-t.*.
Then run a tellnews refeed new.news.server. Problem is that not all ks-t
group were synced. I did use the ctlinnd param c 0 before the ihave run.
Tried to remove/create the missing groups and refeed, didnt
help. They are listed in the active file.

Second atempt.
I run tellnews backup_groups ks-t.*, ftp the backup.bag file to new news
server
and run rnews backup.bag. It put the enitre 12mb file in outgoing and =
log
show:
bad_line bad count #! renews 0. rnews -U gives: can't unspool saving to
spool/incoming/bad/.
The batchfile lack size information, all articles in it start with #! =
renews
0.

Is there a way to fix the bag file or another way to insert its articles =
to
inn?

I use inn 2.4.1 and Dnews is 5.2b3.

Thanks
