Hi there!

I have a fairly simple question, I think. Currently I am running (b-)news
locally, but for all other (world-wide) newsgroups I use nntp to read news 
from a remote host. There is a site which can feed me news, but we both want 
to use nntp and not uucp to get the news over here.

Can someone out there explain to me what I need, what I have to setup, which
files I have to change, etc. I am running bnews2.11 and nntp 1.5.8.
I don't think this is a difficult question, but I don't have the proper
manuals, so I cannot RTFM :-(

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rob.
