Reading news with trn
=====================

The newgroup list of trn needs to be the list of groups. That is the
name of the group followed by a colon, no numbers. 
Example:

bytemine.discuss:
bytemine.test:
de.test:
alt.test:


How to post news with trn
=========================

1. Configure trn again, giving news.bytemine.net as the default NNTPSERVER.
   Compile.  (trn needs some small patches to actually compile these days;
   you have to change the order of #include in two source files. I can
   supply the patch if needed.)
2. Copy Pnews and inews into /usr/local/bin. trn itself doesn't have to
   be rebuilt, but it's just as easy to run make and build everything.
3. Put export NNTP_FORCE_AUTH=y into your .profile (or appropriate syntax
   for tcsh into .login). Log out and then log back in again.
4. Create the file ~/.nntpauth (in your home directory, NOT the .trn/
   directory) containing two lines: your username by itself, and then
   your password by itself.
5. Test posting in misc.test, not in your favorite real news group.
