[leafnode-list] Multiple NNTPHOST sources

[Mike Graham <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I just finished getting Leafnode up and running under  Mandrake 8.2.  
Previously I used slrnpull, but I had heard that leafnode had the 
capability to deal with multiple sources much more smoothly than 
slrnpull could.
  I haven't finished testing, but the issue that I have is that I don't 
get different groups from different sources, rather I try to get the 
same groups from all sources.  The reason for this is because my 
primary ISP is often missing posts, whereas I have access to another 
system which is *quite* good at having all of the posts, but sometimes 
isn't available.  So what I want to do is have fetchmail get whatever 
posts it can from whatever source it can.
  I'm not sure whether leafnode can handle this.
  It would certainly be fair enough if it didn't - it's asking a lot, I 
know.
  My very-preliminary testing seems to indicate that I'll get posts 
repeated if it gets them from multiple hosts.  I *could* be seeing 
hiccups rather than true repeats...

  Is anyone else running a system like this?

  I am the only user of the system - just a half-dozen text newsgroups.
