Try it without the -delete and see if it prints the names. If it prints the right names, you're on the right track.

cnfsstat

CNFSSTAT(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       CNFSSTAT(8)

NAME

       cnfsstat - show usage of cycbuffs

SYNOPSIS

       cnfsstat [ -a ] [ -c CLASS ] [ -h ] [ -l [ seconds ] ] [ -m BUFFER ] [ -P ] [ -p ] [ -s ]

DESCRIPTION

       Cnfsstat reads <pathetc in inn.conf>/cycbuff.conf and <pathetc in inn.conf>/storage.conf to read which cycbuff is available and read speci-
       fied cycbuffs and shows the usage of them.

       Cnfsstat can be invoked from rc.news(8), if <docnfsstat in inn.conf> is ``true'', and the result is written to syslog(3).

OPTIONS

       -a     Cnfsstat prints also the age of the oldest article in the cycbuff.

       -c CLASS
	      Cnfsstat prints for the specified class.

       -h     Cnfsstat prints usage information.

       -l [ seconds ]
	      Cnfsstat never exits unless there is an error, and prints the snapshot every seconds.  The default interval is 600 seconds.

       -m     Cnfsstat prints out information suitable for mrtg.

       -P     Cnfsstat writes PID into <pathrun in inn.conf>/cnfsstat.pid.

       -p     Cnfsstat prints out an mrtg config file.

       -s     Cnfsstat prints the result to syslog(3).
