3 Default: false |
338 | 4 _Description: Manage noffle configuration using debconf? |
5 I'm going to overwrite /etc/news/noffle.conf and /etc/default/noffle with | |
6 some defaults and your following answers, and will update /etc/inetd.conf | |
351 | 7 if you agree. |
410 | 8 . |
9 Otherwise you will find default configuration files in /usr/share/noffle, | |
10 and need to activate noffle manually in your /etc/inetd.conf. | |
301 | 11 |
12 Template: noffle/port | |
13 Type: string | |
338 | 14 _Default: 119 |
15 _Description: Please choose the port number noffle runs on: | |
16 The default port number for NNTP is 119 (nntp). However, perhaps you want | |
17 to run noffle alongside a normal NNTP server; in that case, choose another | |
18 number (above 1024, I recommend 10119), and configure your news reader also | |
19 to use that port number. | |
301 | 20 |
21 Template: noffle/server | |
22 Type: string | |
338 | 23 _Default: news |
24 _Description: Which parent NNTP server do you want to use? | |
25 Noffle expects to obtain its news from another NNTP server. Enter the name | |
26 of that server here. If the server uses a non-standard port number for the | |
27 NNTP connection, please fill that in here as 'servername:portnumber'. | |
301 | 28 |
29 Template: noffle/username | |
30 Type: string | |
338 | 31 _Description: What is your username when accessing your parent NNTP server? |
32 If you need to authenticate you may fill in your username on your parent | |
33 NNTP server; if not, just leave this field blank. | |
301 | 34 . |
35 This is not the preferred way of authentication, since your password will | |
338 | 36 be transmitted in clear text, see README.Debian for more details. |
301 | 37 |
38 Template: noffle/password | |
39 Type: password | |
338 | 40 _Description: What is your password when accessing your parent NNTP server? |
41 If you need to authenticate you may fill in your password on your parent | |
42 NNTP server; if not, just leave this field blank. Warning: This password | |
43 will be saved in plaintext in /etc/news/noffle.conf and in the debconf | |
44 database! | |
301 | 45 . |
46 This is not the preferred way of authentication, since your password will | |
338 | 47 be transmitted in clear text, see README.Debian for more details. |
301 | 48 |
49 Template: noffle/fetchmode | |
50 Type: select | |
338 | 51 _Choices: ppp, cron |
52 _Description: How is noffle supposed to fetch the articles? | |
53 If this is a dialup system, then noffle can be configured to fetch articles | |
54 when the PPP connection comes online. This is done via scripts in | |
55 /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ and /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/. If you have a permanent | |
56 connection, noffle will assume it can always access the NNTP server and a | |
57 cron job will do. | |
301 | 58 |
59 Template: noffle/maxfetch | |
60 Type: string | |
338 | 61 _Default: 300 |
62 _Description: Fetch how many articles by default? | |
63 When noffle fetches articles, it will never fetch more than this amount; if | |
64 there are more, the oldest are discarded. | |
301 | 65 |
66 Template: noffle/default-expire | |
67 Type: string | |
338 | 68 _Default: 14 |
69 _Description: What should the default expire time (in days) be? | |
70 Noffle is configured to purge the local cache of articles older than a | |
71 certain limit. This parameter configures the minimum age of articles to | |
72 expire; this can be fine-tuned in /etc/news/noffle.conf if necessary. | |
301 | 73 Enter '0' to disable it. |
