After reading the recent articles about NFS vs. NNTP, I thought it would be best to make all the other sun servers and clients mount the news spool and use NFS to read news. This also allows other news readers that don't know about NNTP, which is nice. I think I understand what needs to be doe, but I was hoping someone who has done this could give me a few tips on how to make sure everything is correct. For example, it looks to me like I'll need a separate news library on each sun server, each with its own inews, logs, etc. I guess that this is no big deal, since the main logs will be on the central news server. Anyway, I just wanted to see if anyone out there had done this and could help me avoid any traps. Thanks in advance!
