Importing an Old INN News Spool.

Hi,

After upgrading my server to Red Hat 7.2 I'm looking at using sn instead
of INN which was a bit too heavyweight for my needs.

However, it does leave me with a large-ish old spool that I'd like to
import into sn.  Is it written anywhere how to do this?

My current plan is create the groups with snnewgroup (what do I do for a
moderated newsgroup, e.g. comp.compilers, I'd guess stick something in
comp.compilers/.outgoing?) and then turn each of the articles in my old
spool into wire format before catting them all into snstore.  Does that
sound like I'm on the right path?

Will it matter that there is no .serial for any of the newsgroups when
I'm doing this?  Will sn continue OK later when snget contacts the same
news server that INN used to?

Cheers,


Ralph.
