|===============================================================================|
| Start up file for Ant's TCP/IP NewsBase transport (no more !BB blues! |
| Copyright © 1995 Ant. |
|===============================================================================|
|===============================================================================|
| First, set up a few directories for internal use (best not to change these) |
|===============================================================================|
Set TCPIPTransport$Dir <Obey$Dir>
Set TCPIPTransport$Lib <Obey$Dir>.lib
Set TCPIPTransport$SupportDir <NewsBase$Support>.tcp/ip
|===============================================================================|
| Various domain related variables
|===============================================================================|
| Filename to save NewsBase mail under. As long as you don't set it to 'news'
| then this is pretty irrelevant. If you do set it to news, interesting things
| happen (and you'll probably lose all your mail.)
Set TCPIPTransport$MailUser gta
| Set this to your domain name
| Note that this is not the same as your local machine name;
| The name you give here should be valid outside the local network, as it is
| used for the 'From' and 'Reply to' fields. Typically, it will be the domain
| of the machine you've set in TCPIPTransport$MailHost.
Set TCPIPTransport$DomainName hep.umn.edu
|===============================================================================|
| MAIL related variables
|===============================================================================|
| This is where the TCP/IP transport looks for your incoming mail file,
| which, reasonably enough, should contain your incoming mail. Typically,
| this will be an NFS mount to your home directory, or something.
Set TCPIPTransport$MailFile null:$
| This is the name of the host on which a SMTP server resides. This hostname
| must appear as a fully qualified domain name in your !Internet.files.hosts file.
Set TCPIPTransport$MailHost mnhepw.hep.umn.edu
|===============================================================================|
| NEWS related variables
|===============================================================================|
| Similarly, this is the name of a host on which an NNTP server resides. It too
| must be known to the !Internet software. Ensure that this host allows you to
| send and receive news, otherwise your acquaintance with NewsBase will be both
| succinct and irritating.
Set TCPIPTransport$NewsHost newsstand.tc.umn.edu
| If we're happy about the set up, share our joy with NewsBase
Set NewsBase$ReturnCode 0
Set NewsBase$ReturnInfo OK, I'm all set up.
