Yep, I have the very same problem.  This seems to be a MAJOR limitation to
running news on a 3B2.  I have plenty of disk space, but hit the 64K inode
limit.  The only alternative I know (besides using something else) is to
hack up news to allow multple file systems under /usr/spool/news.  Mods like
this have been/or are availble, but I have not used them.
