I'm not pretty sure of the question I want to ask (and what I want to do exactly), so could somebody give some starting pointers ... Basically, I want to do something like the NNTP servers on the Net do (get news feeds from the Net and let people access them), but I have no idea on what to do or where to start or how things work ... Maybe a link to how NNTP servers do their job might help ? Regards, __ Rakhesh To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
