The socket sendto wants to write to isn't available. This can either
come from a dead server (e.g. send a ctlinnd shutdown twice) or from a
process (find -exec rm{} comes to mind) that removed the socket from
the filesystem.

Look after _PATH_NEWSCONTROL in config.data and find out if all components
of the path exist and are accessible. (inncheck could be of help ...)

This condition will occur whenever news.daily is run as root, leaving
the ownership of history, active, etc files as root.  Change ownership
of these files back to news and then restart.
