Net::NNTP::Auth                 A standard NNTP authentication method
Net::NNTP::Proxy                A news server in perl
Net::NNTP::Client               Simulate an entire NNTP client
Net::NNTP::Functions            Code to implement NNTP-standard functions

Installation Instructions
=========================

If you've got perl installed, it's easy:

 perl Makefile.PL

 make test
 sudo make install

(If you don't have sudo installed, run the final command as root.)

If you don't have perl installed, then go install it and start over.
It'll do you good.
