+Template: noffle/debconf
+Type: boolean
+Default: yes
+Description: Manage noffle configuration using debconf?
+ I'm going to overwrite /etc/news/noffle.conf and /etc/default/noffle
+ with some defaults and your following answers, and will update
+ /etc/inetd.conf if you say 'yes' here.
+
+Template: noffle/port
+Type: string
+Default: 119
+Description: Please choose the port number noffle runs on
+ The default port number for NNTP is 119.
+ However, perhaps you want to run noffle alongside a normal
+ NNTP server; in that case, choose another number (above 1024,
+ I recommend 10119), and configure your news reader also to use
+ that port number.
+
+Template: noffle/server
+Type: string
+Default: news
+Description: Which parent NNTP server do you want to use?
+ Noffle expects to obtain its news from another NNTP server.
+ Enter the name of that server here.
+ .
+ If the server uses a non-standard port number for the NNTP
+ connection, please fill that in here as servername:portnumber
+
+Template: noffle/username
+Type: string
+Description: What is your username when accessing your parent NNTP server?
+ If you need to authenticate you may fill in your username on
+ your parent NNTP server; if not, just leave this field blank.
+ .
+ This is not the preferred way of authentication, since your password will
+ be transmitted in clear text. See README.Debian for more details.
+
+Template: noffle/password
+Type: password
+Description: What is your password when accessing your parent NNTP server?
+ If you need to authenticate you may fill in your password on
+ your parent NNTP server; if not, just leave this field blank.
+ Warning: This password will be saved in plaintext in
+ /etc/news/noffle.conf and in the debconf database!
+ .
+ This is not the preferred way of authentication, since your password will
+ be transmitted in clear text. See README.Debian for more details.
+
+Template: noffle/fetchmode
+Type: select
+Choices: ppp, cron
+Description: How is noffle supposed to fetch the articles?
+ If this is a dialup system, then noffle can be configured to
+ fetch articles when the PPP connection comes online. This is
+ done via scripts in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ and /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/.
+ If you have a permanent connection, noffle will assume it
+ can always access the NNTP server and a cron job will do.
+
+Template: noffle/maxfetch
+Type: string
+Default: 300
+Description: Fetch how many articles by default?
+ When noffle fetches articles, it will never fetch more than this
+ amount; if there are more, the oldest are discarded.
+
+Template: noffle/default-expire
+Type: string
+Default: 14
+Description: What should the default expire time (in days) be?
+ Noffle is configured to purge the local cache of articles older than
+ a certain limit. This parameter configures the minimum age of articles
+ to expire; this can be fine-tuned in /etc/news/noffle.conf if necessary.
+ Enter '0' to disable it.
