Thank you, comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.miscers!

Because of the numerous and thoughtful replies I received from members 
of this group, my newsfeed problem was resolved.

It turned out not to have anything to do with the DNS changes I was 
making at the same time.

By moving the correct time zone file for Tokyo into /etc/localtime and 
resetting the 'date' the news messages started getting accepted again.

I don't know why it suddenly stopped working at 11:22am on January 2nd 
though. That will remain one of those unresolved mysteries.

Thanks again!

Doug@going home for late New Year celebrations!
