Simple News Server for Usenet news.

C News is a light weight news server suitable for small feeds. C News is very useful for keeping some usenet groups on a local system and minimizing the time you need to stay connected to the internet. The nntp package is needed for NNTP support.

You need the non-free ncompress package only if you want to exchange news batches with sites where uncompress isn't gunzip.
