Hi there

Im trying to setup my freebsd (2.1.5) to automatically fetch certain
newsgroups from my ISP's news server so that i can read them offline.

Ideally i would like to run a newserver on my machine so that everyone
in the office can read the selected newsgroups that are dloaded without
having to bring up the ISDN line.

Does anyone have any experience in setting something like this up? Or do
you know where i can go to get such info? (Ive searched extensivly for a
faq but cant find one)

TIA

Joe
