[news.software.nntp] NNTP on Xenix??

davidsen@sixhub.UUCP (Wm E. Davidsen Jr) (12/27/89)

  Has anyone run NNTP to read news on Xenix/386? I have Excelan TCP (and
could go to SCO if needed). I am just running out of space for news, and
before trying to port NNTY to run under Xenix I thought I'd ask.

  I think I have the latest version of NNTP, and it is *very* BSDish.

We run NNTP 1.5.7 on XENIX V 386 2.3.2, with SCO's TCP/IP, here.  It
wasn't that hard at all to get it going, basically we just compiled
it for SysV.  (NNTP does have SysV support built-in.)

We use all of nntpd, nntpxmit, and nntpxfer here.  However, we only use
our nntpd with remote nntpxmit clients, we understand that a little more
work needs to be done before our nntpd could handle remote rrn and
nntpxfer clients.
