- This may be a silly question but I have to ask it. I currently
- only receive a limited news feeds (just over 390 odd groups) and
- am about to take a full news feeds from my hub (2200 groups).
-
- Do I have to complete EVERY entry into my /waffle/usenet file or
- is there a way to auto creat newsgroups as I can not see any way
- from the docs to this I thought I would ask.
-
- I had hoped a usenet file like this would work
-
- alt
- biz.
- clari.
- comp.
- nz.
- ny.
- nj.
- aus.
- etc etc etc etc would work but it did not from the tests I have
- tried here. Any thoughts out there ?
-
- Has anyone done the task with 2200 odd news.groups in their usenet
- file? if so how about .zipping it up and uue'ing to me (grin).
