Subject: Free Linux from UseNetServer

Linux Announcement

UseNetServer.Com has made the decision to convert our NNTP systems to
Linux from MS Windows NT. In doing this we are opening up our
servers to the Linux Community for propagation of important
information. UseNetServer.Com is allowing all users interested in
Linux newsgroup issues free access to our servers. Your login /
password is linux / free connecting to Linux-news.usenetserver.com
(207.153.76.21) or news2.usenetserver.com (207.153.76.19).

We have found several major bugs in the kernel which Alan Cox and
Stephen Tweedie have quickly resolved for us. Allowing commercial
grade news to the Linux community will speed the dissemination of
Linux patches and problems. If you have any new news groups you
would like added to the hierarchy drop me an email at
usenet@exectech.net and we will include them. Joe Devita, and his
crew of propeller heads at the Linux General Store
(http://www.linuxgeneralstore.com) in Atlanta helped install and
solve all of our problems. Please note we are still working Rob
Fleischmann with BCandid (Highwind Software) to resolve some of their
software issues with Linux.

UseNetServer is peering with all the major NNTP providers to include
SuperNew, UUNet, SprintNet, and many other smaller providers. This
provides a near real time feed of this information, so you don't have
to wait on your slow local server for the data. I have added 70gb
dedicated to just the Linux groups, this will spool up to a ton of
information for you. If you are overseas, you can still connect to
our servers as we are very well connected via NetRail a tier-1
internet provider. We have terrific speed to the UK and Asia which
multiple DS-3s connected to MAE-East and MAE-West. Check us out.
http://www.usenetserver.com, we're a small company trying to help out
a big community. We look forward to your comments on this free
access.

If you wish to access our other groups please consult the web site:
http://www.usenetserver.com we have nearly 1 terabyte of Messages
MPs, and Files online.

Thanks
Dwight Ringdahl
President/CEO
UseNetServer.Com, Inc.
