UUNET is only $19/month ($18.05 with the quick-pay discount).

Additionally, mail to the 'nntp-managers' list did work for me.

A great flood is destroying a town.  A man sits on his front steps
watching the water rise.

A TRUCK approached and the driver asked, "Sir, would you like a lift to
safety?  The water level is going to rise very high!"

But the man responded, "No thank you!  I have faith in the Lord and
that he will save me." So the truck drove on.

Later the water level had raised above his porch, and a CANOE
approached and the person in it asked, "Sir, would you like a lift to
safety?  The water level is going to rise very high!"

But the man, now looking out of his second floor window, said, "No
thank you!  I have faith in the Lord and that he will save me." So the
person in the canoe paddled on.

Soon the man was standing on the roof because the water level had
enveloped almost his entire house.  A MOTOR BOAT approached the house
and the captain asked, "Sir, would you like a lift to safety?  The
water level is going to rise very high!"

As you can guess, the many yelled to him, "No thank you!  I have faith
in the Lord and that he will save me." So the boat zipped away.

Finally the man was standing on the tallest chimney with the water up
to his shoulders.  A HELICOPTER approached and over their loud speaker
the pilot said, "SIR, WE'RE SO GLAD WE FOUND YOU.  CAN WE GIVE YOU A
LIFT TO SAFETY?"

The man replied, "NO THANK YOU!  I HAVE FAITH IN THE LORD AND THAT HE
WILL SAVE ME."  Frustrated after coming such a long distance the pilot
flew away.

Well, next thing you know the water level grew even higher and the man
drowned.  At the gates of Heaven the man saw God and ran up to him and
screamed, "God!  I've been a good person all my life!  I never missed
church!  I pray regularly!  ...but I waited and waited and now I am
dead!"

And God replied, "I sent a truck, a canoe, a boat, a helicopter, and
the C News 'build' script even says:

   ``Historically the only normal compilation option needed for most
     programs is -O, but again compilers, especially newer ones, differ.
     (NOTE:  many 386 compilers miscompile dbz if -O is used!)
     What options should be given to the compiler [-O]?''

yet you still compiled dbz with the -O option!!!  You DESERVED to drown!"

The moral of this story is that when a build script puts a warning in
front of your face, you might consider following its advice.  Also,
reading doc/problems before you post to news.software.b is always a
good idea.  doc/problems goes into detail about the SCO problem.

Yes, that is the minimal sequence of commands.  Someone else said they did
a 'flush' after step one.  That's not necessary, and would cause extra
work (e.g., channel programs to be stopped and restarted).

>If I want to manipulate the active from a program (Perl script), do

If you are writing C, look at doc/inndcomm.3 and include/inndcomm.h; they
include all you need to do any ctlinnd command (in fact, ctlinnd itself is
little more than a call to the library).

Hacking up a Perl subroutine that spoke to innd's Unix-domain control
socket should be fairly straightforward.

Now just hack gzip in - that gives even *better* compression.

I'm having a problem getting the Elapsed time on my INN reports for certain
sections of the log, namely the articles sent by innxmit and NNRP readership
stats. In the news.notice log file, the elapsed time is always coming up
as 0.00 seconds (?), so i believe the problem is in the bit which generates
this time. I'm running INN1.2 under AIX3.1.5 - anyone had similar problems ?

the same spool disk. I have though of a few options, but none will
provide full
functionallity to both systems:

		System A has the spool drive, system B doesn't.

	- NFS mount A's spool drive, and the directory with history and active
on B.
			* This will work, but the readers on B can not post.

	- As above, but rewrite nnrpd to post to A.
			* The management frowns on source modifications.

	- Don't do it.
			* Polotocal reasons forbid  allowing our customers to read from A, and
B has very little space available. I know, buy more drives. $$$$$. :(

Looking at samples/newgroup, this message is generated when the command
line has more than two parameters.  Double-check the article and make
sure that it really looks like this:
	Control: newgroup osu.wombats moderated
or some such.

Not irrelevent; control.ctl is read by parsecontrol, which is called
first thing by newgroup.  If the newgroup scripts gets called it is
because control.ctl said "doit".

I put a "ctlinnd flush all" after the pause (I do a throttle, actually), just
to make sure that the active file in memory is the same as the one on disk.
Might not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt. :-)

I would say yes; there's no shortcut as far as I know.

You might expect INN to be better cause it doesn't have to create batches
in in.coming.  Many bright people (e.g., folks at LBL) found this, alone,
to be a significant performance win.  The C News folks have announced that
they will be providing a transfer NNTP.  It will probably be better then
the reference implementation, but I don't see how they can win over the
extra file copy.

On the other hand, knowing Henry, Geoff and their "unindicted

that makes it all work quickly and cleanly. :-")

Organization: Memorial University. St.John's Nfld, Canada
Date: Sun, 24 Jan 1993 19:58:40 GMT

I am running anu-news on a vax 6320 running vms version 5.4  and cmu 
version 6.6-5a. The newsgroups of interest are also stored on this system. 

I am also accessing NEWS from a VAX 4200 running vms version 5.4 and cmu version 
6.6-5a using the above machine as the netserver as follow :

$news/netserver=.../netprotocol=cmu

When invoked in this way, there is EXCESSIVE page faulting from the 4200, and 
I mean EXCESSIVE ! Upwards of 10,000 page faults/second is not unusual while
this process is loading.

When news is run from the vax 6320, page faulting is normal. 

WSEXTENT, WSQUOTA, and WSDEF adre the same on both systems. Cab anyone 
suggest ways of reducing the faulting on the client news computer ( the Vax 
4200 ? ) 

Is it normal for this to happen ? Will DECNET behave better as a transoprt 
?

Date: 22 Jan 93 13:50:28 MET
Organization: University of Basel, Switzerland

We are running ANU NEWS 6.0-3 under VMS 5.4-3 and UCX 1.3A. News
transfer is done via NNTP_XMIT to three++ UNIX hosts and, on our side,
the multithreded NNTP server NNTP_TCPUCXM (V1.1), compiled with UCXQIOS.

In two weeks, we will replace our VAX 8840 with a VAX 7000-620. We will
have to upgrade to VMS 5.5-2 and would like to move to UCX 2.0 at the
same time.

Are there any problems to be expected with ANU NEWS 6.0-3 and
NNTP_TCPUCXM (V1.1) running under VMS 5.5-2 and UCX 2.0?
Especially, does the NNTP server survive?

Any answers, hints (and solutions?) are welcome.

From: mgoddard@ehd.hwc.ca (Michael Goddard)
Date: 27 Jan 93 14:24:49 
Distribution: world
Organization: Health and Welfare, Canada

I have been testing a new news service we shall offer on a Sun system.
In so doing, I have been feeding some groups to the other service, and
I have been experimenting with using news/netserver= rather than using
the articles on the VAX, our regular server.

When I connect using nntp, News shows all the newsgroups along with the
range of item numbers.  However, when I go into a newsgroup to read
articles, I am told that the newsgroup is empty, even when I know
there are messages there.  I see that NEWS creates and uses a custom
NEWSRC.SERVER file in my home directory, and not the NEWSRC. file for
the regular server.

As a possibly related question, the newsgroups list from the nntp
server also shows the control and junk groups to all users.  How do I
limit access to these (or any other) groups?

I suspect I need to do some configuring as the NEWSMGR on the Vax,
this time to configure the service to function as an NNTP client.  I
can't find a lot about this in the documentation ... is there anything
in the documentation other than where to put the NEWS.HLB file?

The nntp_access file on the Sun server has "hpb.hwc.ca both post *".
I am running version 6.0-3 of Anu-News, VMS version 5.4-2 and Multinet
5.1.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

The Frequently Asked Questions file has the answer.  You need to find
out what the remote system puts in its Path: header, and put that name
in NEWS.SYS. You should also delete all you NEWS.DISTRIBUTIONS files.

I have just done little bit of hacking of the SET SUPERVISOR command.  We
currently have over 1800 newsgroups, and have carefully avoided having
moderators on our local groups because of the extroardinary amount of time
it took for the SET SUPSERVISOR command to execute.  I changed the command
so that only the current newsgroup is looked at as a candidate for setting
the privilege unless the /ALL qualifier is also specified.  I find no reason
to scan the entire database bye default when only 3 of our groups have
moderators.  I didn't do anything with SET NOSUPER or SET SUPER OFF or
whatever version you use--I find that command to be pretty useless.

After starting ANU news 6.0-3, the error message
"%C-F-LONGJMP, longjmp requested" occurs even if I have not been doing
anything. It seems to occur after a few minutes.

ANU News is acting as an NNTP client to an Ultrix system.

Anyone have any clues?
