As it´s explained within the script and at the NHNS-URL, Juan.Garcia
and myself are responsible for this script.

Well, you catched me moving the server from RedIRIS to Satec, and I wasn´t
very cute... sorry for this. NOW the es.* hierarchy is being server from
"galore.satec.es" changes in the master "usenet." zones have already been done.
Sorry again for this. But....

I ignore which version of the innsync script are you running, the last one
available at "galore.satec.es" takes care of this and never syncs an empty
hierarchy. (I patched this innsync bug), anyway I´m checking it.

Thanx Oli, I will check it ASAP and include your change in the innsync script.

 All the best.
