Description
Leafnode is a USENET software package designed for small sites, with a few tens of readers and only a slow link to the net.
It consists of several programs, three essential ones and several add-ons.
-
Leafnode is the NNTP server. It talks to the normal news clients, and stores readership data.
-
Fetchnews is the NNTP news-gatherer. It looks at the readership data Leafnode stores, and selects what groups to pull news from.
-
Texpire is responsible for deleting old and uninteresting news. It deletes all discussion threads that are old and not recently read.
