I have a question for all the news gurus out there. I recently managed to get a bigger drive on my slab, and have uucp net access (rather than one-at-a-time reading like I do now). I understand my uucp access is useless without rnews (or rn - something like that). Can someone tell me exactly what I need to get decent uucp news capabilities up and running on my slab? I've gone through SysAdmin, and can get the packets, but what then? Am I supposed to have rn, and it's missing? Can I ftp it from somewhere? (This would be best). What about programs like NewsGrazer? I understood that it was only useful if you were directly on the net. Will it handle uucp feeds?
