Nope - I wanted to do this too... :( Well... If the two upstream servers have article-number sequencing, possibly. Otherwise (and I fear you fall into this category) it's not possible without a major alteration to the way nntpcache works, introducing many incompatibilities and much performance degradation. This is because nntpcache uses the respective server's article sequence numbers to index client-side (I think!). -- Lloyd Rennie VBCnet GB Ltd lloyd@vbc.net tel +44 (0) 117 929 1316 http://www.vbc.net fax +44 (0) 117 927 2015
