(If you aren't running UNIX, you'll have to write some software, since all the existing code is written in C. But you could whip something together that didn't worry about running off a configuration table and was intended for a leaf node pretty easily, if you rely on your mail system for the user interface.) However, I doubt any ARPA USENET site will volunteer to redistribute net.sources via plain mail because if the fan-out is more than 1 or 2 the load would kill their system. But if some site is willing, the information in there is certainly public. Mark
