I am in the midst of setting up a news server on a Sun 4.  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!

Mark
