#
#	1995 12 19	R. Krten		created
#	1996 03 13	R. Krten		cleaned up for release
#

#
#	The directory where the virtual filesystem is to be
#	installed.  Suggested value:
#
#		news		/usr/spool/news

news		/usr/spool/news

#
#	The directory where the master database is to be stored.
#	This must be large enough to hold your incoming news!
#	Suggested value:
#
#		database	/usr/spool/knews

database	/usr/spool/knews

#
#	The active file.
#	Suggested value:
#
#		active		/usr/lib/news/active

active		/usr/lib/news/active

#
#	Type of news system in effect, "NNTP" or "UUCP".
#
#	Choose ONE OF:
#
#		newsfeed	uucp
#		newsfeed	nntp sitename
#
#	(For an NNTP newsfeed, provide the name of the NNTP site)
#
#	Note that the current version of VFsys.knews ONLY SUPPORTS nntp
#	---------------------------------------------------------------
#

newsfeed	nntp	news.uunet.ca

#
#	Choose the expiry policy
#
#	Note that the current version of VFsys.knews applies this expiry
#	policy globally across ALL newsgroups, regardless of DATE, or
#	EXPIRES lines.
#
#	Suggested value (units = days):
#
#		expiry		4

expiry	4

#
#	Choose an expiry granularity
#
#	This granularity is used during database file creation, and
#	gives an upper limit on the frequency of expiration.
#
#	Note the relationship:
#
#		number_of_files = expiry * granules (per day)
#
#	So, for example, with an expiry of 4 days, and an expiry granularity
#	of 1 hour (24 granules per day), your database directory will end up
#	with 4 * 24 = 96 files of each expirable type.
#
#	Suggested value (units = hours):
#
#		granularity	6
#
#	There is certainly nothing wrong with setting it right down to the
#	minimum value of "1".

granularity		6
