It appears my rslight stopped syncing with novabbs.org about a day or so
ago.

I connected telnet to your server and I confirmed that recent
messages from other servers are appearing on your server. But when my
rslight tries to sync none of the newer messages are transferred to my
server. The other servers I tested with do hand off the newest messages
to mine.

In the logs I found general information about the last messages that
were transferred but nothing indicating errors in the connections. What
should I look at on this end to find errors in the synchronization?

There are two things you might try. First, if this is the php8 version of
rslight then please upgrade to latest master. A couple of commits contained
an error that broke out of the retrieve loop when hitting a duplicate (that
is fixed).

The second thing is to try to reduce the high watermark number in
/var/spool/rslight/<section>/<server:port>.txt for one or more groups.
rslight should try to retrieve remote articles starting with the number
listed in this file for a group plus one.

I did have this error while testing, but with the newest release it seems
ok for me.

I found the issue, and it was at MY end!

Every time I update novabbs.org, I manually fix permissions on the users
dir as it is shared with the nntp server. I did this incorrectly last time :(

I have now added a cron job to do this every 30 minutes so even when I mess it
up, it gets fixed.

Sorry about that (shame on me)
