Hi,

I have a simple setup on my home network. A 386DX/40 running Debian 1.2 (with 
2.0.30 
kernel). I have a 486DX/66 dual booting between Slackware (will upgrade to 
Debian in 
time) and Win 95 and a 386SX/25 running Win 95.

I have got a ppp dialup on the Debian box and have got mail forwarding running 
OK so I 
can now read mail from the Win 95 machines and queue it back onto Linux for 
dispatch.

What I am trying to do is to run a simple news server so I can collect/post 
news when I 
do my mail collection and make this readable from the Win 95 machines.

I'm running inn as installed from the Debian 1.2 CD.

I can't seem to get news running OK, I've put my news details into the 
get-news.conf, and 
running get-news seems to connect to my ISP's news server and download 
messages, but they  
seem to then dissapear completely.

Is there a HOWTO or a FAQ that covers this configuration ? I've had a look 
through but 
not been able to find anything suitable.
