Is it possible to configure nntpcache to do this? Not automagically at the moment (probably never, because of crossposting just because a sever happens to have the group doesn't mean it gets any articles for that group other than crossposted ones). However you can quite easily specify that different servers should manage different groups. See the nntpcache.servers file for more information. > Stu Heiss - stu@jpusa1.chi.il.us http://www.mcs.net/~stu -- "Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies, The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.
