Hello,
what is exaxtly the "sites sending bad articles" section on my
daily-report ?
https://news.hispagatos.org/usenet/news-notice.2023.07.15-03.00.02.html
Should I be concerned? this is normal? do I have something
misconfigured?
last night I got around 957.

Thanks.
Happy Hacking

I think the usage of "bad" isn't very good here, it is more a listing of
articles that were not accepted broken down by cause. The majority of yours
are for unwanted groups, a peer sent an article for a newsgroup not in your
active file so it was rejected. The others are Duplicate articles, which
happens when multiple peers send the same article at the same time and one is
rejected. Nothing abnormal in your report from my perspective.

Good point. Any suggestion for a better naming of this section?
"Unwanted articles sent by external sites"?

(like we have an "Unwanted newsgroups" section)

Hi rek2,

> https://news.hispagatos.org/usenet/report.html

The "offered" and "accepted" colums are empty whereas you have active
peers (as seen in <https://news.hispagatos.org/usenet/innfeed.status.html>).

You should normally see something like that:
http://news.usenet-fr.net/stat/

Do you happen to have somehow enforced hidden sections? or not
configured the right path to your logs?
I see that only the "inn" program is mentioned in your "Log entries by
program" section, whereas there should also be nnrpd, innd, innfeed...
