We have news and NNTP running on our Suns.  We also have some VMS VAXen
running VMS 5.1, with CMU and TWG TCP/IP.  

If possible, I'd like to get news to our VMS users without having to
set up a full News system on the VMS hosts (at least at first).  So,
it would be ideal if they could read and post remotely -- the user
interface on the VMS machines, but all the real action taking place on
our main news host, a Sun.

Does ANU News provide a remote newsreader which talks NNTP over TCP/IP?
(If so, from where can I ftp it?)

Thanks!
