I'd like to create 2 newsgroups to be used to discuss various topics on a new project now starting up. I have hopes of being able to set up one newsgroup to discuss software issues for the project, and another for hardware. I've found info on how to create a "local" newsgroup for this. The problem is that several different plants in different locations are involved and need to be able to pick up these 2 newsgroups to cause information sharing between the large number of involved "experts" at the sites. Thus, the subject "quasi-local". The distribution would need to be just in our division, which covers several states in the US and one site in another country: several machines in Dayton, OH, several machines here in Atlanta, a machine (or two) in Oiso, Japan, an some machines in Ithaca, NY. Get the picture? The final question, then, is "can I set up a news distribution that targets specific machines?" Thanks in advance for any help you can offer! -------------------------------David Witherspoon------------------------------- D.Witherspoon@Atlanta.NCR.COM | "It's not the code that counts...
