- NEWSFRWD - Usenet News Forwarder
- Ver 4.8.88 - 0.0.3.beta
-
-
- Newsfrwd will allow a UFGATE site to forward newsgroups to a neighboring
- uucp site. It can be configured to forward all inbound newsgroups or
- any specific newsgroups. Newsfrwd must be evoked after running CUB
- to decompress the inbound news.
-
- Newsfrwd is evoked with the first parameter being your the name of the
- inbound news site and the second parameter the name of the site news
- will be sent to. For example 'newsfwrd novavax seeker' will send news
- that came from site novavax over to site seeker. Please note, if
- site seeker (in this example) will have the capability to post news,
- the converse evocation of newsfrwd must be made as well (ie :
- 'newsfrwd seeker novavax).
-
- To limit the number of newsgroups to be forwarded, create a file named
- site.ctl (where site is the uucp site name, from the above example, it
- would be named seeker.ctl). In this file, place the names of the
- newsgroups that will be forwarded, one newsgroup per line. The name can
- be at any level, for example comp.unix will send all newsgroups starting
- with comp.unix (ie: comp.unix.questions, comp.unix.wizards,
- comp.unix.microport,....), comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc and
- rec.ham-radio.packet will only send the specific newsgroup.
