[comp.unix.questions] news for microport or xenix

chapman@fornax.UUCP (05/25/87)

.

I was inundated with replies to my request for news software for
either Microport SysV or MS Xenix.  All but one were for Microport.
Thanks very much to all those who took the time to respond.  One 
interesting thing is the range of comment on the difficulty of making
news 2.11 work on microport.  Some said it would run without modification
while at the other extreme it was claimed to take months to get it
going.  There were a variety of comments in between.  Since someone is
mailing me floppies with the source I guess I will be finding out for
myself.

Once again thanks for the help everyone.
