I am trying to configure INN on a FreeBSD 2.0R system. : I did RTFM and got everything except the "newsfeeds" file. : Two questions: : (1) is it this file or "active" or both that determine which groups : come IN to my site from my provider (or is that something on his end)? It's the other end that determines what newsgroups you get fed, however INN can be configured to just ignore a newsgroup (rather than send it to the 'junk' newsgroup) if it sees a newsgroup not in its active file. This must be compiled into INN. : (2) could someone send me a working newsfeeds file (or give me and : ftp pointer to one) since I cannot figure out how to change : the sampel one to work (inncheck keeps giving me things to fix). Hmmm, this is not something I can help you with...we only have one newsfeed and it's a little to simple I would think.
