Miami Computing & Information Services (MCIS) is pleased to announce conversion to the new NNTP-based NetNews newsreader on the centrally managed, multiuser Digital OpenVMS system in Oxford (MiaVX1). The new newsreader is functionally equivalent to the old newsreader. The new newsreader accesses NetNews from the new central NNTP server rather than from the NetNews server running on MiaVX1. For the next two weeks the old newsreader program will still be available by typing the command OLDNEWS. After two weeks, the old newsreader will be permanently removed from MiaVX1, along with the NetNews server that feeds it. Please refer any comments, problems and suggestions to the MCIS Help Desk by electronic mail at [log in to unmask] or by telephone at 529-7900. Thank you. -- John B Harlan Campus Wide Information Systems (CWIS) Coordinator Miami University (Ohio USA) http://WWW.MUOhio.Edu/~HarlanJB/ (513) 529-5330 (513) 529-1496 fax [log in to unmask]
