## control.ctl - Access control for control messages. ## Last modified: 2008-03-05 ## ## Based on rone's unified control.ctl file. ## ## For a web presentation of the information recorded here, as well as ## other useful information about Usenet hierarchies, please see: ## ## ## ## Please copy usenet-config@isc.org on any updates to this file so that ## it can be updated in the INN CVS repository and on ftp.isc.org. For ## changes to a public hierarchy, please also post the changes to ## news.admin.hierarchies. ## ## The canonical version of this file can be found in the latest INN ## release and at ; these ## two files will be kept in sync. Please refer to the latest version of ## this file for the most up-to-date hierarchy control information and ## please use the latest version if you intend to carry all hierarchies. ## ## You may wish to review and change the policy for alt.*, free.*, ## it-alt.*, and oesterreich.* below before using this file on your ## server. ## ## Format: ## ::: ## ## Control message or "all" if it applies to all control ## messages. ## Pattern that must match the From line. ## Pattern that must match the newsgroup being newgroup'd ## or rmgroup'd (ignored for other messages). ## What to do: ## doit Perform action ## drop Ignore message ## log One line to error log ## mail Send mail to admin ## verify-pgp_userid Do PGP verification on user. ## All actions except drop and mail can be given a log ## location by following the action with an = and the ## log ("mail" says to mail the admin, an empty location ## tosses the log information, and a relative path xxx ## logs to $LOG/xxx.log). ## ## The *last* matching entry is used. See the expire.ctl(5) man page for ## complete information. ## ## This file follows the following policies: ## ## * Most unknown or invalid control messages no longer result in mail. ## This is due to the proliferation of forged control messages filling ## up mailboxes. Some news servers even get overwhelmed with trying to ## log failure, so unsigned control messages for hierarchies that use ## PGP are simply dropped. ## ## * The assumption is that you now have PGP on your system. If you ## don't, you should get it to help protect yourself against all the ## control message forgeries. See . ## PGP control message verification comes with all versions of INN since ## 1.5, but you will need to install either PGP or GnuPG; see the ## installation instructions for your news server. ## ## If for some reason you can't use PGP, search for the *PGP* comments ## and modify the control lines to change "verify-..." in the action ## field to "mail" or "doit=mail" or "doit=" or whatever you ## prefer (replacing with the name of an appropriate log ## file). ## ## * A number of hierarchies are for local use only but have leaked out ## into the general stream. In this config file, they are set so that ## the groups will be easy to remove, and are marked with a comment of ## *LOCAL* (for use by that organization only, not generally ## distributed), *DEFUNCT* (a hierarchy that's no longer used), or ## *PRIVATE* (should only be carried after making arrangements with the ## given contact address). Please delete all groups in those ## hierarchies from your server if you carry them, unless you've ## contacted the listed contact address and arranged a feed. ## ## If you have permission to carry any of the hierarchies so listed in ## this file, you should change the entries for those hierarchies below. ## ## The comments of this file aren't in any formal or well-defined syntax, ## but they are meant to use a consistent syntax to allow eventual parsing ## by scripts into a better database format. Please follow the syntax of ## existing entries when providing new ones. The recognized "fields" are ## Contact (contact e-mail address), Admin group (the administrative group ## for the hierarchy), URL, Key URL (URL for PGP key), Key fingerprint, Key ## mail (address to mail for PGP key), and Syncable server (for actsync or ## a similar tool). ## ## Names used in this file that cannot be encoded in 7bit ASCII are in ## UTF-8. The only non-7bit-ASCII content is in comments. ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## DEFAULT ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Default to dropping control messages that aren't recognized to allow # people to experiment without inadvertently mailbombing news admins. all:*:*:drop ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## CHECKGROUPS MESSAGES ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Default to mailing all checkgroups messages to the administrator. checkgroups:*:*:mail ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ## MISCELLANEOUS CONTROL MESSAGES ## ------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Mostly only used for UUCP feeds, very rarely used these days. ihave:*:*:drop sendme:*:*:drop # Request to send a copy of the newsfeeds file, intended for mapping # projects.

The local news admin can # then add new alt.* groups only on user request. Tons of alt.* newgroups # are sent out regularly with the intent more to create nonsense entries # in active files than to actually create a useable newsgroup. The admin # may still want to check the control message archive, as described below. # # Quality, user-desirable new groups can often be discovered by a quick # perusal of recent alt.* newgroup messages after discarding obvious junk # groups. One good initial filter is to check the archive of control # messages for a requested group to see if a syntactically valid newgroup # message was issued. Many of the junk control messages are invalid and # won't be archived, and many sites will only add alt.* groups with valid # control messages. To check the archive, see if: # # ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/control/alt/.gz # # exists (replacing with the name of the group) and read the # first and last few control messages to see if the newsgroup should be # moderated. (Some alt.* groups that should be moderated are created # unmoderated by hijackers to try to damage the newsgroup.) # # Be aware that there is no official, generally accepted alt.* policy and # all information about alt.* groups available is essentially someone's # opinion, including these comments.
