Are you running tin in NNTP mode?

Have you run "texpire" recently?

I have just tried tin (run as "rtin") on leafnode 1.9.52.rc13, without
problem. I am not aware of having fixed active-file related bugs that
might have killed rtin.

These are developer versions.

Unknown. Please capture an NNTP trace (either set debugmode=3 or check
the tin debug options - may require recompilation) and show relevant
excerpts.
