I have turned on the internal NNTP server for our company to use. I have 3 questions.

1. Under the "virtual directory" there is a check box that says "Index News Content" and says under the help for that topic "Use this option to index newsroups in this directory with Microsoft Indexing Servicecs, which allows users to search for specified text." However, when I check my two default catalogs (System, Web)under indexing service, I don't see either of the virtual directories listed. Are they being indexed?

2. How long with the files stay there? Forever?

3. What exactly do the control.newgroup and those newsgroups do? How can I use them?
