Except for those of us whom believe that "tasteful advertising" is better

No, it's not a political agenda. It's good taste ... something that the

Note also that there is a small bug in C News logging -- it's documented,
too -- that logs your machine as the originator when what it really means
is "I don't know what to put in the 'originator' field".  This happens here.
If the numbers stay small, this is probably what's happening.

If you want to investigate, the log messages in question usually appear
together with more conventional messages that identify the real culprit.

Date: 15 Dec 92 03:49:57 GMT
Article-I.D.: pdxgate.6573


  I'm fairly new to news system software (and I've taken on our campus
usenet server [what better way to learn?]). I started out with the latest
and greatest Cnews NNTP software then found INN (and was saved :)  ). But
I have some questions on the types of newsfeeds (ie, funnel, channel, etc...).
I'm not clear exactly what they entail; the manual speaks of how to set it
up and get it going, but not when each type is appropriate. My server will
be transmitting articles over the net and will be feeding some UUCP sites.
Could someone give me a brief rundown of the newsfeed types used by INN?
Thanx.

-e.b.

(Please e-mail a response as well, as our current usenet server is very
kludgy and backlogged (Bnews)).

My solution: Replace "rnews" with a link to relaynews. This clamps the
window way down. The tradeoff is slightly less overlap in processing,
but the overlap is less than you'd expect, anyway. 

This also avoids a problem that myn neighbor had: the in.coming
directory filling up, because newsrun gets behind. With the link in
place, there is no newsrun; each article is filed when it is received.

Ah, the "wives and cattle" syndrome. More is better, until you have to feed
them. Apple nearly choked on a combination of neglect and far too many news
feeds (actually, it probably DID choke, but it hadn't quite hit brain
death). Fixing up a lot of nagging little problems has helped a lot, but
there's still the question of why you have newsfeeds. Some folks see lots of
newsfeeds as a way of improving their importance to the net. Others see
feeds as a way of getting reliable data to their users. If you're one of the
latter, and your newsfeeds are starting to disrupt reliability, it seems to
me the answer is obvious.

Unless you're using NNTP. Its port (119) is reserved for root. That's

This is exactly the kind of situation where INN shines -- it's what it was
designed for.  Until you install INN there are a couple of work-arounds:
	- Drop some feeds, or ask then to run nntpxmit (or innxmit)
	  only once or twice a day, and not use nntplink. :-)
	- Install msgidd (gatekeeper.dec.com:/pub/mix/vixie/msgidd.shar;
	  but note that the author now runs INNN).

You're absolutely right none of these tell them anything about the
problem:

               Header contains non-header line:
               Unapproved article in moderated group:
               No @ in Message ID:
               Message ID not bracketed with <>:

You'd rather that improperly configured software be allowed to continue

There is a standard of operations for news posting software. Broken  
software causes problems. Failure to abide by the specifications
propogates those problems to the rest of the net. If articles don't meet
the standards they SHOULD be dropped.

Obviously, the solution is to have software which can handle every
posting, compliant or not. So if I send mail with a header of "Hi
Santa" every site should forward it to the North Pole.
   <sarcasm off> It sure is a sign of a nice group that questions like
this get handled politely.

As somebody who has had something I've said taken out of context, printed
out and faxed to the president of my company by an uptight asshole trying to
make trouble, all I can say is that NO disclaimer is good enough if somebody
is going to be an asshole.  Since the fax in question had my TWO disclaimers
on the page, but the part where I was truthful but less than complimentary
about another company's product was highlighted, nobody paid any attention
to the disclaimers.

I've got the black mark on my employee record, and infinite disgust and
disrespect for a certain company who I didn't have much respect for to start
with.

after reading the news man pages, i am a bit confused. all the references  
to adding groups i found seemed to regard only local newsgroups. would it  
be sufficient to use the addgroup script to add a group that exists  
already?

any comment regarding the situation would be appreciated.

At our site all news software runs as user news. All directories
used for news are owned by news. The crontab jobs are run as user
news. Root access was required only to modify /etc/inetd.conf to
run /usr/local/etc/nntpd (as user news) when a call came in on
port 119. The actual line loks like this:

nntp	stream	tcp	nowait	news	/usr/local/etc/nntpd nntpd

O'Reilly and Associates book "Managing UUCP and USENET" has an entire chapter
on how to install/configure NNTP.  I've used it and it was A LOT of help in
getting the last couple of quirks out of our installation.

Hope this helps
