-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Leafnode is an NNTP proxy suitable for small sites: http://leafnode.sourceforge.net/
Issues: 1. Leafnode relies on hard-link counts, so current implementation of hlinks on FAT32 breaks it. News spool has to be on NTFS, and it seems this will be an NT/2K/XP only package. 2. Leafnode requires existence of "news" user and "news" group at runtime. It also requires existence of "root" user with UID 0 at build stage (specifically during 'make install'). These will result in some editing of /etc/group and /etc/passwd files. 3. Leafnode requires a superserver to function properly. I intend to limit it to xinetd to keep things simple in README, postinstall, patches, etc. though it can later be reverted to inetd. Are these issues/restrictions tolerable for a Cygwin package? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: A.
