Hiya I am currently charged with the duty of setting up nntp cache to try and offload some of the work from our primary news server. Whilst the drives are being formated and the machine is installing Solaris, I have setup nntpcache on my desktop PC so I can get a feel for it, and have a play :) However I am having problems running newshound... I have copied the newshound.conf file into /etc and when I come to run the program itself I just get the responce of : Problem with configuration file /etc/newshound.conf I have compiled the program into /opt/nntpcache can anyone suggest why this is happening? The config file newshound.conf is: ; /etc/newshound.conf file ; Newshound Ver 2.0 ; ; email :- andre@weblink.solutions.net.au ; ; Should be local news server. Nntpcache will handle the hard stuff. ; SERVER news.u-net.com PORT 119 ; ; Ban list switches=(on/off/ON/OFF/yes/no/YES/no) ; BAN off ; ; Groups with these words found in them are banned. ; WORD binary ;WORD binaries ;WORD picture ;WORD sex ; ; Files we work with.
