I'd really like to move beyond 2.11.14. (So far I'm intending to stick to B news rather than C news because it sounds like C requires more tweaking if you run NNTP, which we do.) Absolutely untrue. If you have the latest NNTP and an up-to-date C News, all you have to do is install C News, compile NNTP with C News defined, and voila! A particularly delightful side effect is that you will never again run completely out of space in /usr/spool/news. If things get tight, batches will start piling up in /usr/spool/news/in.coming. If things get any tighter, your NNTP daemon will start refusing articles. When the next expire makes room, things will automatically start unpacking... I'm not sure I'd want to run a B News/NNTP site ever again. AMBAR
