|
<P>In normal cases if you want to read news offline on your local computer
|
|||
|
you have to install a news server software like INN or CNews. Also you
|
|||
|
are in the need for an nntp or uucp connection to your newsfeed. In
|
|||
|
fact that such packages contain much more features than you need, you
|
|||
|
run better by installing Leafnode.
|
|||
|
<P>
|
|||
|
<P>Leafnode is much simpler to use and very small but there are some
|
|||
|
disadvantages: Leafnode is slow and loses news in about any error
|
|||
|
situation. That's why you shouldn't use it for a big news server,
|
|||
|
nevertheless, it<69>s appropriate for private users who don<6F>t want spend
|
|||
|
much time configuring INN.
