I am using multiple servers and posts to one of the servers does not make it to the newsgroup. Looking at the output of running the newnews.pl script, all outgoing posts are trying to be posted on the first newsgroup it processes which for posts that are going to a newsgroup that is not on that server, it means it doesn't make it to the newsgroup but says it was sent. Disabling all the newgroups on one server makes it where the posts go to the right server (but tries to send the messages for the disabled newsgroups too). It does the same for inserting replies where all of them are done on the first newsgroup, but they go to the correct forum, so that's not a big deal.
This has happened since I upgraded to the vb2.0b5 version and I just tried it with the newest newnews.pl script and it occurs with this one too.
I have not investigated further... I would assume it's a coding problem or a problem with the database tables (something not upgraded properly). Does this happen for others that are using multiple servers?
Here is the output from newnews that I get:
Connecting to news.tc.umn.edu... Connected
Sending authentication info... Authenticated and logged in
Getting article batch from rec.sport.unicycling
No new messages in rec.sport.unicycling
inserting new threads into forums

Processing outgoing messages
Posting message by Gilby to webdiscuss.test... Sent
You can see that it is trying to post to "webdiscuss.test" while processing for "rec.sport.unicycling". The "webdiscuss.test" newsgroup is disabled and also is on another server. This post did not make it to the newsgroup even though it says "Sent".
