First Time News Retrieval

Changi supports many ways to exchange public newsgroups between a remote and the local server. Providers of newsgroups usually don't.

This chapter will introduce one way to do that, which should work in most environments. However, it will not work in situations, where your provider doesn't support online news reading.

If your newsgroup access is limited to push feeding or UUCP transfer, then you should refer to the related chapters.

If you don't intend to import and export public news, then continue reading the part about how to use Changi for internal (only) news distribution.
