I don't know if this belongs in .newuser, but it's an admin question,
so I'll post it here...

We would like to have the ability to read news on an RS/6000 from
another system (our gateway to the net, and the news machine).  We're
running C news on it, and provide nntp access to our VAX/VMS machines.

Since nntp newsreading is a bit slow, there must be a faster way of
doing this (such as NFS-mounting the news disk and reading the news
directly off that.  However, I don't know how to manage posting from
the remote machine).

I'm sure this is a common situation out there in netland.  Can anyone
suggest to me what's the best way of doing this?

Any info would be appreciated.
                Thanks,
                        - Steve -
