For the news part: I run leafnode on main machine and on the laptop
and do an unidirectional sync (main -> laptop) of /var/spool/news/ [1]
when connected. In this way, the article numbers are the same.
[1] I use leafnode2 (beta). This of course only works as long as
leafnode2 uses the traditional spool layout.
Bye, Reiner.
