-=head1 NAME
-
-rc.news - Start or stop INN daemons
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-B<rc.news> [start | stop]
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-B<rc.news> can be used to start or stop B<innd> and supporting programs.
-It checks to make sure INN is not already running, handles cases of
-unclean shutdown, finishes up tasks which might have been interrupted by
-the preceeding shutdown, emails certain boot-time warnings to
-I<newsmaster> (as set in F<inn.conf>), and is generally safer and easier
-than starting and stopping everything directly. It needs to be run as the
-news user so that files in I<pathrun> are created with the right ownership
-(though this is less important for C<rc.news stop>), and therefore
-requires that F<inndstart> be setuid root, see inndstart(8) for
-discussion.
-
-Programs run and stopped by this script include:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item *
-
-Always: B<inndstart> is run, and B<innd> is stopped.
-
-=item *
-
-If I<doinnwatch> is true in F<inn.conf>: B<innwatch> is started and
-stopped.
-
-=item *
-
-If I<docnfsstat> is true in F<inn.conf>: B<ovdb_init> is run;
-B<ovdb_server> and B<ovdb_monitor> are stopped.
-
-=item *
-
-If F<rc.news.local> exists in I<pathbin>: B<rc.news.local> is run with
-argument C<start> or C<stop> (to perform site-specific startup or shutdown
-tasks).

-
-=head1 OPTIONS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item C<start>
-
-If the first argument is C<start>, or no first argument is given,
-B<rc.news> initiates INN startup.
-
-=item C<stop>
-
-If the first argument is C<stop>, B<rc.news> initiates INN shutdown. It
-is recommended to throttle the server first as described in ctlinnd(8).

-
-=head1 EXAMPLES
-
-To start INN and leave certain error messages going to the terminal:
-
- su - news -c ~news/bin/rc.news
-
-To run INN at startup time from appropriate system boot scripts:
-
- su - news -c ~news/bin/rc.news >/dev/console
-
-To stop INN (throttling first):
-
- ~news/bin/ctlinnd throttle reason
- su - news -c '~news/bin/rc.news stop'
-
-=head1 BUGS
-
-Running C<rc.news start> as root is never the right thing to do, so we
-should at minimum check for this and error, or perhaps change effective
-user ID.
