Hi Matt, >It might be possible to hack something up using uqwk - the news portion of a >SOUP packet is just a bunch of straight uncompressed newsbatches. uqwk >works by grabbing news from an NNTP server, so it should work with >nntpcache. Hmmm.. yeah I had a play with uqwk a while ago. It works okay but unfortunately he already has lots of users getting news via uucp which uqwk wouldn't do (unless I misunderstand somewhere). >I beleive there is also a news sucking program which can generate >newsbatches, too, but I'm not sure which one or how good it is. Hmm... that sounds promising. Any idea at all what is was called or where you heard of it? Adam. ----------------- Earthlight Communications Limited ---------------- P.O.
