It uses very little disk space and bandwidth compared to other servers, is easily configured and maintained, and tries very hard to recover automatically from error situations. Each article is stored in a separate file. There are six programs, three essential and several add-ons. The essentials are leafnode (NNTP server-- talks to news clients and stores readership data); fetchnews (NNTP news-gatherer-- looks at stored readership data and selects groups to pull news from); and texpire, which deletes old and uninteresting news. Add-ons are applyfilter (deletes articles fitting a certain pattern); checkgroups (inserts newsgroup titles into the database; newsq (shows which news are waiting to be transferred to your upstream server).<br /> |User level=none<br /> |Status=Live<br /> |Component programs=leafnode,fetchnews,texpire,applyfilter,checkgroups,newsq<br /> |Homepage URL=http://www.leafnode.org/<br /> |VCS checkout command=<br /> |Computer languages=C<br /> |Documentation note=User README and FAQ included<br /> |Paid support=<br /> |IRC help=<br /> |IRC general=<br /> |IRC development=<br /> |Related projects=Newsd,Noffle,Newspost<br /> |Keywords=News,newsreader,spool,group,newsgroup,leafnode,fetchnews,texpire,applyfilter,checkgroups,newsq,news server<br /> |Is GNU=n<br /> |Last review by=Janet Casey<br /> |Last review date=2005-05-04<br /> |Submitted by=Database conversion<br /> |Submitted date=2011-04-01<br /> |Version identifier=1.11.2<br /> |Version date=2005-05-04<br /> |Version status=stable<br /> |Version download=http://www.leafnode.org/<br /> |License verified date=2002-03-15<br /> |Version comment=1.11.2 stable released 2005-05-04<br /> }}<br /> {{Person<br /> |Role=Maintainer<br /> |Real name=Matthias Andree<br /> |Email=matthias.andree@gmx.de<br /> |Resource URL=<br /> }}<br /> {{Person<br /> |Role=Contributor<br /> |Real name=See the CREDITS file in the distribution for a complete list<br /> |Email=<br /> |Resource URL=<br /> }}<br /> {{Resource<br /> |Resource audience=Bug Tracking,Developer,Support<br /> |Resource kind=E-mail<br /> |Resource URL=mailto:leafnode-list@wpxx02.toxi.uni-wuerzburg.de<br /> }}<br /> {{Resource<br /> |Resource audience=Support<br /> |Resource kind=Newsgroup<br /> |Resource URL=de.comm.software.newsserver<br /> }}<br /> {{Software category<br /> |Interface=command-line<br /> |Internet-application=newsreader<br /> |Use=internet-application<br /> }}<br /> {{Project license<br /> |License=LGPL<br /> |License verified by=Janet Casey<br /> |License verified date=2002-03-15<br /> }}<br /> {{Software prerequisite<br /> |Prerequisite kind=Required to use<br /> |Prerequisite description=inetd or xinetd or tcpserver<br /> }}<br /> {{Software prerequisite<br /> |Prerequisite kind=Weak prerequisite<br /> |Prerequisite description=cron or anacron or uoschedule (to run fetchnews and texpire at regular intervals); PCRE (http://www.pcre.org/)<br /> }}</div>
