it but its still there. Last night I was playing with my new laptop,
transferring stuff from the old one and came up with Phindows, fired it away
and entered the QNX4 machine for the first time in years. Out of sheer
curiosity I typed "tin" and got inside the old news server, lots of really
old posts there.
Spent a few good minutes reading old posts from "aboyd" and "waflowers" and
the like:

I have many many megs of old posts like that, I'll make sure I backup them
before they tear down that old 486 QNX4 server.
One question, most of the posts are expired for obvious reasons, if I
remember correctly there was a way to reindex the news system so all the
posts became available again, does anyone remembers how to do it? (damn,
maybe I need to email glen... hehe)
