As having great difficulties in setting up a offline newsreader system for various users on a debian box I would grately appreciate some guidance.
My intention is to have a systemwide spool directory where each user on this box may access his beloved newsgroup he has subscribed to. Some people recommended to use slrn as I wanted to have a text based newsreader. To enable offline newsreading slrnpull.deb might be helpful. To my understanding all desired newsgroups that have to be replicated have to be defined in /var/spool/slrnpull/slrnpull.conf but nothing seems to help me to define where each slrn user saves _his_ newsgroup subscriptions, the newsgroups he is only interested in. I'm not thinking of the contents, the message bodies hereby, only the name of the newsgroup. Having the replication of a few newsgroups in mind (< 12) and to install a local newserver apt-cache suggested: + leafnode + cnews+nntp and the following programs which I'm not able to classify correctly: + diablo + nntpcache + uqwk + task-news-server I would really be grateful if someone helps me to get some structure into this.
