Hi Rob,

The simplest way to stop sucking binaries from one server is to modify the group rules in dnews.conf -

nntp_feeder server1.example.com *,!*binaries*
nntp_suck2 server2.example.com *binaries*

This would suck no *binaries* groups from server 1, and suck only these groups from server 2.

You also need to ensure you have an update_at defined for each server otherwise they won't be sucked from.

update_at *0 *
update_at *5 *

And a groups_at is also useful for the second and subsequent feeds (It is automatic on the first feed).

groups_at2 0 0

Are there special *rules* to suck only binaries from a (2) suck-server(s) ?
It seems the server wil not change from one to the other server.
All the bins will be sucked from 1 server.....

CU, Rob
