The list in Gunter Pilz's book, page 435.
Stuart Scott's article "Some interesting open problems" in the Near-ring Newsletter Number 16 of January 1995, p 160.

The known solved problems include:

Stuart Scott's Problem 4. Erhard Aichinger believes that the problem is solved as a result of Kalle Kaarli's paper "On near-rings generated by endomorphisms of some groups", Tartu Riikl Ül. Toimetised 464, Trudy Mat. i. Mech No. 22 (1978), pp3-12. MR 80a-16049. Unfortunately the paper is in Russian (with Estonian and English summaries), as well as being incredibly hard to find. If the problem is not solved as a result of this paper, then a direct solution will be forthcoming.
