Andreas Klemm 7ef9e7065f Famous last words for UUCP users, because path of rnews has changed in inn2.
So update /etc/uucp/sys with something like this:
	command-path /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/local/news/bin
Document this.

Plaintext

InterNetNews is a complete Usenet system. The cornerstone of the package
is innd, an NNTP server that multiplexes all I/O. Newsreading is handled
by a separate server, nnrpd, that is spawned for each client. Both innd
and nnrpd have some slight variances from the NNTP protocol.
This is the new version 2.x, maintained by the ISC
Installation is relatively complex but nicely explained in the
file INSTALL, see the inn2 sources under the work directory.
See: http://www.isc.org/
Final note for UUCP users. The path of the rnews executeable has changed !
Add this to /etc/uucp/sys:
command-path /bin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/local/news/bin
commands rmail uucp rnews
otherwise /usr/local/news/bin/rnews rnews can't be executed.
