You can't do a news/notes gateway without having both new and notes existing on the same machine. Rich $alz "Drug tests p**s me off" ... ... /* End of text from occrsh.UUCP:news.sw.notes */ Begging thy pardon, but since the gateway software rests entirely on the notes side of things, any notes site that receives its feed from a news site is performing the gateway function. The news site doesn't know or care what the site it's feeding looks like. Now, whether the news site elects to process updates from the notes site is another matter altogether :-). Before I installed news on this machine, I was performing the gateway function for att.*: att.* was being fed to occrsh by a news site, and the balance of the groups were being fed from a notes site. The notes feeder site subsequently converted to news, and since notes can't send to more than one news site, that forced me to load news on my machine. --Bob Tracy AT&T Network & Data Systems Oklahoma City Works {most AT&T sites}!occrsh!rct
