How would I go about sending the last 3 weeks of articles from a specific
group to a peer? Would the nntp server have to request it or can I tell
dnews to queue those up?
If the peer is 'sucking' news from you, then they must request it
If you are sending an ihave feed to them, then you must queue them up.
To do this modify your existing newsfeeds.conf, e.g
...
site x.y.z
groups *
type builtin
Add another site, use the ip address of x.y.z, e.g.
...
site 1.2.3.4
groups wanted.group.only
type builtin
then:
tellnews reload
tellnews refeed 1.2.3.4
Once it's resent the group in question, you could then remove this extra
feed entry (the next day)
It will resend 'all' items in the specified group.
