ACTIVE.TIMES(5)


NAME

  active.times - List of local creation times of newsgroups


DESCRIPTION

  The file pathdb/active.times provides a chronological record of when
  newsgruops were created on the local server.	This file is normally updated
  by innd whenever a newgroup control message is processed or a "ctlinnd
  newgroup" command is issued, and is used by nnrpd to answer NEWGROUPS
  requests.

  Each line consists of three fields:

      <name> <time> <creator>

  The first field is the name of the newsgroup.	 The second field is the time
  it was created, expressed as the number of seconds since the epoch.  The
  third field is the e-mail addrses of the person who created the group, as
  specified in the control message or on the ctlinnd command line, or the
  newsmaster specified at configure time if no creator argument was given to
  ctlinnd.
