In the NNTP access file, it is possible to specify a selcttion of distribution(s) for a given site, e.g. (from the example access file): # ic can read and post news, but users on ic cannot read # articles in the group ucb.postgres or any of its decendents # (e.g., ucb.postgres.core) ic read post !ucb.postgres When I specify "!comp", newsgroups comp.all... are not transmitted to the specified host. However, when I specify "comp" I would expect *ONLY* comp.all... groups to be exposed. Apparently, only exclusion of groups works. Is this a bug, or am I mistaken?
