InterNetNews is a complete Usenet system. The cornerstone of the package
|
|
is innd, an NNTP server that multiplexes all I/O. Newsreading is handled
|
|
by a separate server, nnrpd, that is spawned for each client. Both innd
|
|
and nnrpd have some slight variances from the NNTP protocol. It's also
|
|
possible to have UUCP and NNTP feeds and clients.
|
|
|
|
Some statements to meet the COPYRIGHT:
|
|
- This is the new version, maintained by the ISC
|
|
- This product includes software developed by Rich Salz
|
|
- The only changes that have been made are a post-install target in the
|
|
Makefile of the FreeBSD port, so that the news spool area is created
|
|
automatically for ease of use of our inn2 port in the FreeBSD ports collection
|
|
|
|
Installation is relatively complex but nicely explained in the file INSTALL,
|
|
see the inn2 sources under the work directory.
