Usenet Explorer

Can it be that the search tool inside UE is not searching inside "alt.binaries.lou"?

now the group:

alt.binaries.usenetdevils

is not included with the search.

i've added it (headers are already there), initially it will be at 117 day retention then growing (it is about 2% of files, the rest is at 150 days), since it is the current max newsservers header feed retention Ngroups/UNS, I see the newsgroup is about 2.7M headers.

later i'll try to write something to find differences between newsgroup lists of news and indexing servers.

i've synchronized the current newsgroup list for non-picture groups no "pict" in the name, it is now in the process of downloading headers.

with picture groups i'll do it a bit later, i have an idea how to draw picture groups from the backup server as it is done now already, but in the same time to optimize its usage so we won't sacrifice retention and update the whole newsgroup list on the backup server as well, maybe i'll do it later today or tomorrow, most likely to do it we need a small server code change, i haven't checked it exactly yet.

i've implemented the optimization, now the backup server contains fully synchronized newsgroup list (added all newsgroups there as well).

it is not all what i'm thinking of, but i wanted first to have a reserve server with all newsgroups without lowering its retention.

Alex, please add "alt.binaries.ufo" to the search engine.

ok it is there.

i've fully synchronized newsgroup list again this time there are only few new ones, last time there were also not many.

alex, can you please add:

alt.binaries.u-4all

it is there, it was always there, if you search for "test" in this group i get results 192 days old.

thank you Alex, it was my fault.
