how would one go about setting IP Synchronet and multiple instances of
it to create their own network like DOVE-net?

Create a hub..  It should be in the readme.  I would think it'd be
pretty lonely though

Well I want to do with some of my friends. My ideas are planned here:
https://walkman.carteronline.net/luanet/. It won't be so big at the
start but I want to start off small and make sure everyone who wants
to host a node carefully follows the guidelines and then grow from
there. As well as getting users on the nodes - ne of the main points
of course.

just setup the msg areas, export them, give them to friends to import
and use nntp to handle it all.  read the documentation for further
information and newslink.txt

  takes minutes.

I see.

Oh. I see. I would let the Synchronet BBS NNTP server run and then
others can setup NewsLink and get data fromy NNTP server and vice-
versa?

just set it up and you will see. one bbs is the hub and the others
connect.  make sure they have the qwk exeption for their accounts.
easier for you to do it than for me to explain it.  it's quick and
easy
