This directory contains C news support for posting news via NNTP.
frontend_inews parse options, invokes $NEWSBIN/nntp/inews to
send the article to the remote NNTP server.
$NEWSBIN/nntp/inews
not included here, you can get the NNTP distribution
from UCSD.EDU and apply the patches found on
bcm.tmc.edu. This is the C program that sends
the article to a remote server
server_inews if you run an NNTP server, it should call this as its
inews (fix common/conf.h). figures out moderated newsgroups
and all that.
To repeat: make sure the nntp server invokes server_inews and
not $NEWSBIN/nnpt/news (instant infinite loop!).
