It should be used by the local Usenet administrator to verify that all of the standard bionet groups are in the "active" file or the equivalent thereof on the local system. If you do not receive all of the bionet groups or you are not sure whether or not you do, you should ask your Usenet administrator to execute this checkgroups message. NOTE: the moderated bionet newsgroups follow the convention that articles can be delivered to the moderator by forming an address consisting of the newsgroup name with the dots changed to dashes @net.bio.net (i.e., bionet.software.sources articles go to bionet-software-sources@net.bio.net.) If you run INN, you can add "bionet.*:%s@net.bio.net" to /usr/lib/news/moderators to achieve the same effect. ---------------------- For Usenet Administrators --------------------- Recent versions of news support a "checkgroups" control message that can be used to help keep your active file in sync with the "standard" bionet groups. What follows is a skeleton checkgroups control message that you can customize and run locally to check your active file. The following should be extracted and then passed directly to your checkgroups script on standard input. It can also be posted locally, with a distribution set to keep it internal to your local organization. This is NOT the preferred method of operation, however, as some distributions "leak" to a wider distribution of machines. Also note that versions of C news prior to the performance release of July 1992 do NOT handle checkgroups input properly and you should not attempt to use the checkgroups feature. If you are running C news, you are strongly encouraged to get and install a recent version so as to take advantage of the checkgroups fix as well as many other performance enhancements. ---------------------------- cut here ---------------------------------- Newsgroups: control Distribution: local From: news Subject: cmsg checkgroups Control: checkgroups bionet.agroforestry Agroforestry research. bionet.announce Announcements of widespread interest to biologists.
