Re: [leafnode-list] Odd one.

[Doug Laidlaw <laidlaws@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

No, I just want something that I have proved to be reliable.  I don't have the 
know-how to contribute to development, although I don't mind running simple 
tests on request.  If you asked me for a back-trace or similar, I wouldn't 
know where to start.  I am basically an "end-user."  1.9.19 was O.K. by me - 
basically all I need is a local database of postings.  I don't use filters.  
That said, i am a great fan of leafnode.  Mandrake 9.0 uses 1.9.24, and I have 
been using 1.9.29 since it came out.

I installed 1.9.33 using checkinstall, but I still had to configure xinetd, 
using the FAQ.  The Mandrake RPMs update xinetd and put texpire in 
cron.daily.  I only have to set up the config file, and add to hosts.allow 
and hosts.deny.  Mandrake is getting a bit like Windoze. They put things in 
non-standard places, so only their own packages will install without 
problems, or at least a minor config exercise.  I can't speak for the other 
distros.

Yes, i agree with that.
