In order to set up a news server, you need to obtain a NEWS feed.

This is far different than setting up a NEWS reader (which I'll bet is what
you probably want.).

Most news feeds will COST you big $$$ unless you have a friend who works in
a feeder site...

You can use programs such as SUCK to pull down a group or groups from a nntp
site however. Think carefully before you do this though.

You might want to just use PAN to grab all the new messages in a specific
group. Even then, expect your hard drive to fill after a few days.

If you -REALLY- want to set up a news server and have obtained a feed, then
given that you've spent this much, you might want to invest in one of the
O'Reilly books on News and NNTP.
