NAME¶

sndelgroup - delete an existing sn newsgroup

SYNOPSIS¶

sndelgroup newsgroup...

DESCRIPTION¶

sndelgroup deletes the specified newsgroups; i.e. everything under /var/spool/sn/newsgroup after removing the article ID entries in the sn database. Do not use the shell command rm -rf /var/spool/sn/newsgroup because that will leave unreclaimed garbage in the database. You will need to own /var/spool/sn in order to do this.

FILES MODIFIED¶

/var/spool/sn/{.chain,.newsgroup}, newsgroup directory and contents, /var/spool/sn/.ougtoing/news.server.name:port

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES¶

SNROOT

If this is set and is not empty, the value is used in place of /var/spool/sn, the default news spool directory.
