I have a dialup PPP provider. Everytime I open up Knews it wants to go to my provider and retrieve the entire news file (or at least I guess this is what it does). I already have a .newsrc-new1.ibm.net file in my home directory that Netscape and GNUS uses. Is there a way to have Knews use this file instead of going to the ISP? I looked in the documentation and it mentioned 'knewsd' but I am not certain if this is necessary and I am also not certain how to use 'knewsd' either.
