From article <1992Nov3.132439.20934@cerberus.ulaval.ca>, by news@cerberus.ulaval.ca: > A few days ago, someone talked to me about INN (InterNetNews). > It is supposed to be faster than NNTP. Is there someone that had > some experiences with INN? I installed INN on our DECsystem 3100 running Ultrix 4.2a last month. There were a few minor problems, some Ultrix specific, and one major one: my previous inxeperience with news software of any kind :-). However it has been running now for 2 weeks without problems, and I have found it very easy to maintain. We are getting an NNTP news feed from a site running B-news, so far without problems. Not having used any other news software, I can't comment on the relative merits of INN, except to say that it appears to work well. BTW, I believe NNTP is a protocol for transporting news, not an actual news server package. The INN ditribution includes an implementation of NNTP. __ t j regan
