Look at /usr/lib/news/sys file. We feed direct to/from uunet. The relevant entry is listed below: ============================================= # line indicating what we are willing to receive; note local groups on end #ME:comp,news,sci,rec,misc,soc,talk,alt,to # local-postings-only feed direct to major site (gets them out fast) ============================================ John
