NAME

       newsq - view the leafnode news queue

SYNOPSIS

       newsq [-f]

DESCRIPTION

       newsq  outputs  a summary of news that is in leafnode’s out.going queue
       (or failed.postings directory, with -f). The out.going  queue  contains
       news  that  has  been  posted locally on your site and has not yet been
       uploaded to the upstream news  server.  The  failed.postings  directory
       contains  news  articles that have been rejected by upstream servers --
       these will not be retried automatically. You can hoewver move  them  to
       the  out.going  queue  manually  --  with  the mv(1) command -- to have
       fetchnews retry them the next time.  This  is  useful  if  the  posting
       failed because the upstream server had temporary difficulties.

       The  queue is printed in the order it is read from the disk. The output
       is not explicitly sorted. (This matches GNU "ls -U" behaviour.)

OPTIONS

       -f     print the contents of  the  failed.postings  directory  instead.
              This option was introduced with leafnode v1.9.20.
