The leafnode Portfile 54417 2009-07-27 07:20:51Z toby macports.org $

PortSystem 1.0

Name: leafnode
Version: 1.11.7
Category: news
Platform: darwin
Maintainers: macports.org:krischik
Description: Leafnode is a store & forward NNTP proxy
Long Description: Leafnode is a software package that implements a store & forward NNTP proxy (client and server) that supportis TCP connections across IPv4 and IPv6. It can be used to give a regular newsreader off-line functionality, merge news articles from several upstream newsservers for newsreaders that only support one server well and avoid duplicate news download for a small LAN with multiple users reading news.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/leafnode
%  sudo port install leafnode  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching leafnode
--->  Verifying checksum for leafnode
--->  Extracting leafnode
--->  Configuring leafnode
--->  Building leafnode with target all

--->  Staging leafnode into destroot

--->  Installing leafnode

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using leafnode with these commands:

%  man leafnode
%  apropos leafnode
%  which leafnode
%  locate leafnode
