In localhost.freebsd.questions you write: >Greetings, >We have been using BSD/OS for our first 2 Internet servers. The 3rd >server we decided to try FreeBSD.. Everything went great!!!

Can you tell me where to find >setup instructions. This nntp seems quite different than the one we >are using on BSD/OS... I believe that the nntpd in the packages section is Stan Barber's nntp. You'll need the cnews port as well for this to work at all. I'm guessing that BSD came with INN, which is more common nowadays (not that cnews isn't good for somethings--I'm replying to this message right now that was posted on my home machine with cnews and read with nntp). Look for cnews and stan barber's nntp original packages for documentation. I believe that nntp should be available from ftp.uu.net. look for the directory news or nntp . >Thank you, >Gregg >Sysop >Gregg Houck >HCE >717 N.
