Ok, probably you should start with the scripts you have for INN and they
should more or less work with dnews. If it works via uucp bag files
then the two 'dnews' settings you need to know about are:
suck_uucp d:\incoming\uucp\*.bag
And in newsfeeds.conf
...
site outgoing.uucp
groups x.y.z
type uucp
uucp_dir d:\outgoing\uucp
The suck_uucp entry scans that directory for uucp bag files and the type
uucp feed writes
uucp bag files, so if your scripts talk uucp that should help.
