Well, I don't know if this is what you're looking for or if it's proper "technique", but ibelieve if you have a domain you could just point news.yourdomain.com to UUNet's IP Address. You should probably check with them first, but it shouldn't be a problem. Is this what you're looking for? I'd be interested to hear opinions on this technique as well from others on this list. -Matt Heya all I am perplexed on how to setup a news relay since I am only on a T-1 and we all know that isn't enough bandwidth to do that so as Matt Heckman suggested maybe "What if you set up a divert/tunnel for news? Ie, they would connect to your news server, which would then forward the connection to uunet's" "Something like an IPFW divert or natd redirect? So that a connection to you:119 would forward to uunet:119 so you could be sure the connection came from an allowed IP address..." some of that makes sense to me but I am a fairly new BSD person. Any suggestions? Tony Kuta Internet Operations Senior Tech. Pflash Inc.
