What I have in mind is an inhouse news server with forums that are accessible by password only, hopefully both inside and outside of a firewall. Would innd and nnrpd be all that I need? I've *no* experience with news and am aware that setting up a full newsserver is not a trivial task. Hopefully what I'm thinking of would not require the tuning and planning a commercial feed would. Any comments and information on what and where to find it would be great.
