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.
