Subject: (7.27) Reloading hosts.nntp is slow.


>" but I need to reload hosts.nntp each time I add
>a feed. That takes about 15-25 minutes to happen.

Write a small script/program that parses hosts.nntp.txt and writes
only IP addresses to hosts.nntp and innd will reload it nearly
instantaneously.

or you can lookup on each of the hosts before doing a ctlinnd reload.
Then it should be almost instantaneous. One could write up a script for that.

Somebody has to take the time to convert FQDN's to IP addresses, but
there's no requirement that it be innd.
