Re: usenet

[Jeff Licquia <jeff@web.lanscape.net>]

Briefly, there are two ways to use Usenet:

 - With a local feed
 - Client/server (over NNTP).

Setting up a local feed is usually a lot of work, but it can give you 
some benefits.  For more information, check out the Linux Documentation 
Project; we have a mirror at http://www.luci.org/LDP/.

For NNTP, you usually just need to set your newsreader's NNTP setting.  
Check the man page or other documentation for your newsreader.

If you want more detailed info or help, come and meet us!  Were holding 
our first InstallFest a week from today, and our regular meeting is on 
the fourth Tuesday of each month.  Or check our Web site 
(http://www.luci.org) for more information about us.

Good luck!
