I need a utility (in C, shell script, yacc, etc) that will automatically check specific news groups for new messages and forward these messages to a user on another system. I'd like to be able to have it run from my .login so it executes every time I log on. FYI, I am on a VAX running Ultrix-32 V3.0 (Rev 64). The mailers I use are rn or xrn. I would figure this out myself except I'm kinda new to the UNIX world and I am just swamped with other work. As I do not usually read this or any of the other UNIX newsgroups, please send any replies to the address in my sig. Thanx in advance, Mark ===================================================================== Mark L. Littlefield | Standard disclamer internet: mll@aio.jsc.nasa.gov | "Blah, blah, blah..."
