NNTPSEND.CTL(5)					  NNTPSEND.CTL(5)

NAME
       nntpsend.ctl - list of sites to feed via nntpsend

DESCRIPTION
       The file <--prefix=PREFIX at configure>/nntpsend.ctl spec-
       ifies the default list of sites to be fed by  nntpsend(8).

       Comments	 begin	with  a	 number sign (``#'') and continue
       through the end of the line.  Blank lines and comments are
       ignored.	  All  other  lines should consist of four fields
       separated by a colon.

       The first field is the name of the site	as  specified  in
       the newsfeeds(5) file.

       The  second  field should be the hostname or IP address of
       the remote site.

       The third field, if non-empty, specifies the default  head
       truncation  size	 of  site's  batchfile.	 If this field is
       empty, no truncation is performed.  If this  field  is  of
       the  form  ``maxsize-truncsize''	 then  it  is  passed  to
       shrinkfile as ``-m maxsize -s truncsize'', otherwise is of
       the  form  ``truncsize''	 then it is passed as ``-s trunc-
       size''.

       The fourth field specifies some default	flags  passed  to
       innxmit(8).   The  flag	``-a'' is always given to innxmit
       and need not appear hear.  If no ``-t  timeout''	 flag  is
       given  in  this	field  and  on the nntpsend command line,
       ``-t 180'' will be given to innxmit.
