Hi, Right now I am trying to configure my newly installed INN news. Since the INN News ports did not locate all the files to the default location (/usr/local/news directory), I need to manually change all the configuration files to tell INN news where to look for the files. For example, I opened "nntpsend" file and found that inside of it says "/usr/local/news/lib/innshellvars". Actually, "innshellvars" file is located in /root/inntemp/work/site directory (where I compiled INN news). I used vi to change the location to "/root/inntemp/work/site/innshellvars" inside of "nntpsend". I opened "innshellvars" and found that I need to change a lot of place to reflect the actual files location. Some files I can't find that mention inside of "innshellvars" such as "nntpin" of the line "NNTPCONNECT=/usr/local/news/innd/nntpin". Some other files I don't know whether the system will generate them when INN news starts later such as "history", "innwatch.status", "innwatch.pid", "newsgroups", "innd.pid", "CONTROLPROGS=/usr/local/news/bin/control", "DAILY=/usr/loca/news/locks/LOCK.news.daily", "LOCKS=/usr/local/news/locks" and "NEWSCONTROL=/usr/local/news/innd/control" and their actual location. Also I don't know how many configuration files do I need to change because the file actual location at least I found "innwatch, innwatch.ctl" files needs change. Thanks in advance.
