It can also be used to give a regular newsreader +off-line functionality. The leafnode program itself is the server while +the programs fetchnews and texpire transport the news and expire old +articles respectively. + +There is a little work to do to install this program effectively, all +of which is clearly set out in the README file contained in the source. +It is strongly advised for you to read it thoroughly before installing +leafnode. Below is a quick sketch of the requirements for Leafnode setup: + +After the installation, you need to: +1. Ensure $NNTPSERVER or /etc/nntpserver point to localhost. +2. Set /etc/inetd.conf so leafnode is executed for incoming NNTP connections. + nntp stream tcp nowait news /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/leafnode +3. Set /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow to protect the server. See the + README + /etc/hosts.deny: leafnode: ALL + /etc/hosts.allow: leafnode: 127.0.0.1 +4. Create /etc/leafnode/config and adjust settings as required. A sample + file - /etc/leafnode/config.example - is already there. +5. Set cronjobs for fetchnews and texpire. +6. Fetch the newsgroup list from your server. + /usr/sbin/fetchnews -vv + /usr/sbin/texpire -vv + ** texpire will make sure the leafnode news spool is in working order. +7. Set your newsreader to use the localhost leafnode. + +All of this is carefully written up in the README file of the source code and I +stress again the importance of reading that file thorougly.
