The news server lost its system hard disk during the week-end (and, of course, I was trying to take a small vacation away from home at that time). I could only restart it this evening, with some tinkering. Expect some small disruptions for the service while I try to put everything back on track… Sorry for the inconvenience ! Fred (That poor old grandpa of a box should be allowed to rest definitively…) ---
