Does anyone know of the existance of a version of rn/readnews/vnews etc
that works nicely with BNET local area networking ? 

We use a System V machine on an ethernet LAN which receives news via x25 
and it would be nice to be able to read news remotely without the need to 
rlogin to the news server machine.  This would necessitate rn storing 
per-user files locally, whilst accessing the active and news article files 
on the remote machine.

If anyone knows of such a thing can you please mail me info on how to
get hold of it. 

Also:
 Can someone tell me how to get hold of sendmail/uumail ?

Thanks in advance,

Colin Manning.
