[net.news.config] Zehntel configuration

berry@zinfandel.UUCP (Berry Kercheval) (06/29/84)

Here at zehntel we previously had 'news' only on our PDP 11/70 named
zehntel.  Since the phone lines for our two vaxes are on the same rotary as
the '70, sometimes an incoming uucp call will get switched to the VAX.
Zinfandel is next on the rotary, and for some time I have been noticing
failed rnews jobs here.  

I have accordingly brought up news to provide continuity.  An occaisional
news batch destined for 'zehntel' still arrives at 'zinfandel', but
now gets processed and distributed OK.

I should warn people that replying to articles with 'zehntel!zinfandel' in their
path will probably not work.  We get news from hplabs, tektronix,
dual, ihnp4, varian and zps, and only 'zehntel' talks to them all.
I will try to fudge anautomatic forwarder as soon as I figger out how
to do it, but don't hold your breath.
