<P>
Below are the files that you need to setup for INN news. I used inn-2.2.2 on
my system. It is configured to install in /opt/news with the command
<strong>./configure --prefix=/opt/news</strong> during the installation of
inn.

## Format:
## /remember/:&lt;keep&gt;
## &lt;patterns&gt;:&lt;modflag&gt;:&lt;keep&gt;:&lt;default&gt;:&lt;purge&gt;
## First line gives history retention; other lines specify expiration
## for newsgroups. Must have a "*:A:..." line which is the default.
## &lt;patterns&gt; wildmat-style patterns for the newsgroups
## &lt;modflag&gt; Pick one of M U A -- modifies pattern to be only
## moderated, unmoderated, or all groups
## &lt;keep&gt; Mininum number of days to keep article
## &lt;default&gt; Default number of days to keep the article
## &lt;purge&gt; Flush article after this many days
## &lt;keep&gt;, &lt;default&gt;, and &lt;purge&gt; can be floating-point numbers or the
## word "never." Times are based on when received unless -p is used;
## see expire.8
## If article expires before 14 days, we still remember it for 14 days in
## case we get offered it again. Depending on what you use for the innd
## -c flag and how paranoid you are about old news, you might want to
## make this 28, 30, etc.
/remember/:14
## Keep for 1-10 days, allow Expires headers to work.

## newsfeeds - determine where Usenet articles get sent
## Format:
## site[/exclude,exclude...]\
## :pattern,pattern...[/distrib,distrib...]\
## :flag,flag...\
## :param
## Summary of flags:
## &lt;size Article must be less then size bytes.
## &gt;size Article must be more then size bytes.
## Aitems Article checks -- d (must have Distribution header)
## p (don't check for site in Path header)
## c (no control messages) C (only control messages)
## e (all groups must exist).
## Bhigh/low Internal buffer size before writing to output.
## Fname Name of the spool file.
## Gcount Crossposts limited to count groups.
## H[count] Article must have less then count hops; default is 1.
## Isize Internal buffer size (if a file feed)
## Nm Only moderated groups that match the patterns.
## Nu Only unmoderated groups that match the patterns.
## Ppriority Nice priority of channel or program feed.
## Ooriginator First field of X-Trace must match originator (wildmat).
## Ssize Start spooling if more than size bytes get queued.
## Ttype Feed types -- f (file) m (funnel; param names the
## real entry) p (pipe to program) c (send to stdin
## channel of param's sub-process) x (like c, but
## handles commands on stdin) x (log entry only).
## Witems What to write -- b (article bytesize) f (full path)
## g (first newsgroup) h (Message-ID hash)
## m (Message-ID) n (relative path) p (posted time)
## s (site that fed article) t (time received)
## * (names of funnel feed-in's or all sites that get
## the article) N (Newsgroups header) D (Distribution
## header) H (all headers) O (overview data)
## P (path header) R (replication information)
## Param field depends on T flag. For Tf, relative paths are from the
## out.going directory. For Tp and Tc, it is a shell command to execute.
## If a Tm refers to this entry (which will have its own T param) then "*"
## is expanded to all the funnel sites that triggered this one. Useful
## for spawning one mail process, e.g.
##
## This file is complicated -- see newsfeeds.5!
## This is the local site.
## The "pattern" field gives the initial subscription list for
## all other sites. You might want to put "!control,!junk,!<local>.*"
## there. The "distrib" subfield limits incoming articles.
##
## You can also have ME/bad.site: to refuse articles from a particular
## site (by matching the Path: entry). Other pseudo-sites may be put
## in here, to REFUSE certain types of 3rd-party cancel messages
## (See the "Cancel FAQ" news.admin.net-abuse.misc):
## cyberspam Spam cancels, munged articles, binary postings
## spewcancel just munged articles from runaway gateways
## bincancel just binary postings to non-binaries groups
##
## Note that refusing articles means you won't offer them to sites you feed
## Default of everything to everybody except for junk, control, anything
## with "local" as the newsgroup prefix (i.e. matches "localhost.stuff") or
## groups under foo. Articles posted to any group under alt.binaries.warez
## will not get propagated, even if they're cross posted to something that
## is.

## Format:
## &lt;weight&gt;:&lt;pattern&gt;:&lt;value&gt;
## All articles are matched against all patterns, value to be used is the

## &lt;weight&gt; The weight assigned to this match, integer
## &lt;pattern&gt; Newsgroup name or single wildmat(3) pattern

## nnrp.access - access file for on-campus NNTP sites
## Format:
## &lt;host&gt;:&lt;perm&gt;:&lt;user&gt;:&lt;pass&gt;:&lt;groups&gt;
## &lt;host&gt;:&lt;/path/file&gt;
## Connecting host must be found in this file; the last match found is
## used, so put defaults first.
## &lt;host&gt; Wildcard name or IP address
## &lt;perm&gt; R to read; P to post
## &lt;user&gt; Username for authentication before posting
## &lt;pass&gt; Password, for same reason
## &lt;groups&gt; Newsgroup patterns that can be read or not read
## &lt;/path/file&gt; A second file to scan in the same format as this
## To disable posting put a space in the &lt;user&gt; and &lt;pass&gt; fields, since
## there is no way for client to enter one.
##
## Default is no access, no way to authentication, and no groups.
