news b crashes
We had another news crash on cbosg.  Seems it has something to do with
full filesystems.  Is anyone out there running B on a system where the
filesystem containing /usr/spool (probably /usr) is frequently full?
Do you lose your . files when this happens?  I suspect something weird
about CB/UNIX is doing it.
In my previous message telling how to recover from a crash, I forgot to
mention that after doing
	ls /usr/spool/news > /usr/lib/news/active
you have to edit active by hand to put the tails back on the long newsgroup
names.
