[olug] News Server

[William E. Kempf]

I use COX for my internet connection.  I have a need to read Usenet messages
from a computer not networked with COX, but their news server won't allow
this.  In the past I've used NewsCache on my Linux box to suck news from the
COX server and then have used NewsCache as the server from this other
computer for reading news.  Unfortunately, I'm finding NewsCache to be very
poorly supported and I'm questioning the quality of this server.

Could anyone recommend a news server that can easily be set up to pull news
from the COX news server?  It would be nice if it didn't pull the news
articles until requested by a client in order to reduce the spool size with
out having to restrict the server to just a few news groups, but I suppose
that's not a must have feature.
