HP UX Internet Express Software manual Viewing INN Log Files, Creating Local Newsgroups

Page 246

Creating Local Newsgroups

To create a local newsgroup, choose Add/Delete Local Newsgroups from the InterNetNews Administration menu. The Add/Delete Local Newsgroups form shows the existing local newsgroups (if any) and provides a field where you can enter the name of a new local newsgroup.

When you create a local newsgroup, use the prefix local. to exclude it from external newsgroups. Choose a name that describes the purpose or content of the information offered by the newsgroup (for example, local.org.research). Do not use spaces in newsgroup names.

The Administration utility does not support the creation of external newsgroups. To create a newsgroup that can be accessed by other systems on the INN network, you must use UNIX commands on the command line. Chapter 2 provides URLs for Web sites that offer more information on INN.

Deleting Local Newsgroups

To delete a local newsgroup, follow these steps:

1.From the Administration utility Main menu, choose Manage Components.

2.On the Manage Components menu, choose InterNetNews.

3.From the InterNetNews Administration menu, choose Add/Delete Local Newsgroups.

4.In the Existing Local Newsgroups list box, choose the newsgroups you want to delete.

5.Click on Delete.

The Administration utility displays a message indicating that the selected newsgroups were deleted. You can use the navigation bar at the top of the page to return to the InterNetNews Administration menu.

Viewing INN Log Files

To examine INN server log files, follow these steps:

1.From the Administration utility Main menu, choose Manage Components.

2.On the Manage Components menu, choose InterNetNews.

3.From the InterNetNews Administration menu, choose View Reports and Log Files.

4.On the View Reports and Log Files menu, choose one of the following:

•View news Log File—Displays the date and time news articles were sent, whether the article was accepted or rejected, the host machine that sent the article, and the article's message-id.

•View news.crit Log File—Displays any critical error messages, including the date and time of the error, and the host machine where the error occurred.

•View news.notice Log File—Displays batch file transfers, which provide information on articles fed downstream and changes to the status of innd.

•View nntpsend.log Log File—Displays information on innxmit, which provides insight into the transmission of news articles to other newsfeeds.

•Display innstat Information—An executable program that displays current statistics on the INN server, including current server status, disk usage and the percentage of disk space available, batch and log file sizes, lock files, and current server connections.

The entries in these log files are generated from data in the /usr/news/etc/log directories.

Use the navigation buttons to page through the report or to go to the beginning or end of the report. To return to the View Reports and Log Files form, use the navigation bar at the top of the screen.
