In fact, what it does is pass certain NNTP commands through -to real (remote and possibly local) news-servers based on various -pattern matching rules. nntpcache then takes the output from those -servers and caches & indexes it in funky ways (much specific case -magic goes into this). The next time such information is asked -for, or other information which can be logically inferred from the -previously collated information, it is sent directly from the cache, -without consulting the remote servers. NNTPCache can transparently -merge multiple servers, (permiting local newsgroups with remote -NNTP feeds), filter articles, xovers, and headers based on weighted -regular expressions, and has built in NoCem/PGP (anti-spam) support -(see www.nntpcache.org or www.nocem.org for details). NNTPcache -also supports a wide variety of authentication types, including -LDAP, /etc/{passwd,shadow}, generic unixpipe and RADIUS. +NNTPCache can take reader loads off major news-servers. Besides its +super efficient execution, a single or multi-layer concentric ring of +NNTPCaches can be arranged about one or more central news-servers on a +DNS round-robin basis. Such a wall of NNTPCaches provides drop-in +scalability, redundancy, authentication & security for even the +largest news-server heart. NNTPCache can transparently stitch multiple +split news-servers (e.g, one news-server carrying alt.binaries.*, +another carrying alt.*, and another carrying everything else) back +together, allowing news-server administrators to spread their news +feeds over multiple machines, or to out-source selected components. + +NNTPCache minimises the effects of news-server down time, by continuing +to provide cached news-data in the face of news-server fall-over. + +NNTPCache natively supports a variety of AUTHINFO methods, including +/etc/passwd, generic unix pipes, LDAP and radius. diff --git a/news/nntpcache/Makefile b/news/nntpcache/Makefile index 51badd3589f..939a20d6882 100644 --- a/news/nntpcache/Makefile +++ b/news/nntpcache/Makefile @@ -1,14 +1,10 @@ -# $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.11 2001/09/27 23:18:34 jlam Exp $ +# $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.12 2002/04/05 19:14:23 proff Exp $ # FreeBSD Id: Makefile,v 1.11 1998/02/01 03:04:11 itojun Exp # -DISTNAME= nntpcache-2.4.0b5 +DISTNAME= nntpcache-3.0.1 CATEGORIES= news MASTER_SITES= ftp://ftp.nntpcache.org/pub/nntpcache/ \ - ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/news/nntpcache/ \ - ftp://ftp.contrib.com/pub/software/unix/news/nntpcache/ \ - ftp://ftp.eu.net/news/transport/nntpcache/ \ - ftp://ftp.belgium.eu.net/pub/news/transport/nntpcache/ \ ftp://ftp.netlab.is.tsukuba.ac.jp/pub/network/news/nntpcache/ \ ftp://ftp.faho.rwth-aachen.de/pub/linux/nntpcache/ \ ftp://ftp.hway.ru/pub/news/nntpcache/ @@ -32,14 +28,14 @@ DEPENDS+= openldap-[0-9]*:../../databases/openldap DEPENDS+= pgp-2.*:../../security/pgp2 .endif -BUILD_DEFS+= NNTP_USE_LDAP NNTP_USE_PGP +BUILD_DEFS+= NNTP_USE_LDAP NNTP_USE_PGP GNU_CONFIGURE= yes CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --localstatedir=/var/spool CONFIGURE_ENV+= INSTALL_SCRIPT="${INSTALL_SCRIPT}" USE_GMAKE= yes -INSTALL_TARGET= SUBDIRS="cf src filters http doc pgp contrib/newshound innreport scripts unixauth" \ +INSTALL_TARGET= SUBDIRS="cf src filters http doc pgp contrib/newshound contrib/perlnewshound innreport scripts unixauth" \ install post-configure: @@ -50,6 +46,6 @@ post-install: ${INSTALL_SCRIPT} ${WRKSRC}/nntpcached.sh ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d/nntpcached ${INSTALL_DATA_DIR} ${PREFIX}/share/doc/nntpcache cd ${WRKSRC} && ${INSTALL_DATA} README INSTALL FAQ FAQ.html LICENSING \ - ${PREFIX}/share/doc/nntpcache/ + README.INN README.pam ChangeLog ${PREFIX}/share/doc/nntpcache/ .include "../../mk/bsd.pkg.mk" diff --git a/news/nntpcache/PLIST b/news/nntpcache/PLIST index 37e01ec6667..5cc04c1e58c 100644 --- a/news/nntpcache/PLIST +++ b/news/nntpcache/PLIST @@ -1,14 +1,19 @@ -@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.2 2002/02/15 10:12:56 skrll Exp $ +@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.3 2002/04/05 19:14:23 proff Exp $ etc/nntpcache/VERSION etc/nntpcache/innreport.conf-dist etc/nntpcache/innreport.pl etc/nntpcache/innreport.pm etc/nntpcache/newshound.conf-dist etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.access-dist +etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.access etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.config-dist +etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.config etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.servers-dist +etc/nntpcache/nntpcache.servers etc/nntpcache/pubring.asc-dist +etc/nntpcache/pubring.asc etc/nntpcache/pubring.pgp-dist +etc/nntpcache/pubring.pgp etc/nntpcache/spam.filter etc/nntpcache/http/index.html etc/nntpcache/http/moose.gif @@ -20,6 +25,7 @@ etc/nntpcache/http/nntpcache.jpg etc/rc.d/nntpcached sbin/innreport.sh sbin/newshound +sbin/newshound.pl sbin/nntpcached libexec/unixauth libexec/nntpcache-gdb.sh @@ -32,9 +38,13 @@ man/man8/nntpcached.8 @exec ${CHOWN} -R news:news /var/spool/nntpcache @exec ${CHMOD} 700 /var/spool/nntpcache @unexec ${RM} -rf /var/spool/nntpcache -share/doc/nntpcache/INSTALL -share/doc/nntpcache/README +share/doc/nntpcache/ChangeLog share/doc/nntpcache/FAQ share/doc/nntpcache/FAQ.html +share/doc/nntpcache/INSTALL share/doc/nntpcache/LICENSING +share/doc/nntpcache/README +share/doc/nntpcache/README.INN +share/doc/nntpcache/README.pam + @dirrm share/doc/nntpcache diff --git a/news/nntpcache/distinfo b/news/nntpcache/distinfo index 2ed063dbf37..00f4b4bec26 100644 --- a/news/nntpcache/distinfo +++ b/news/nntpcache/distinfo @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -$NetBSD: distinfo,v 1.2 2001/04/19 13:37:54 agc Exp $ +$NetBSD: distinfo,v 1.3 2002/04/05 19:14:23 proff Exp $ -SHA1 (nntpcache-2.4.0b5.tar.gz) = e0a24297c821609c577c12b2283cc2979124b761 -Size (nntpcache-2.4.0b5.tar.gz) = 1104778 bytes +SHA1 (nntpcache-3.0.1.tar.gz) = 68ced9471a1e2a2dd7d1bf37477690a5b80bcf7d +Size (nntpcache-3.0.1.tar.gz) = 1085258 bytes |
