expireover
EXPIREOVER(8) System Manager's Manual EXPIREOVER(8)
NAME
expireover - Expire entries from the news overview database
SYNOPSIS
expireover [ -e ] [ -f file ] [ -k ] [ -N ] [ -p ] [ -q ] [ -s ] [ -w number ] [ -z rmfile ] [ -Z lofile ]
DESCRIPTION
Expireover expires entries from the news overview database. It reads a list of newsgroup list ( <pathdb in inn.conf>/active). (A file
name of ``-'' may be used to specify the standard input.) It then removes any mention of those articles from the appropriate overview
database. If ``groupbaseexpiry'' in inn.conf is ``true'', expireover also expires articles. If it's ``false'', ``-e'', ``-k'', ``-N'',
``-p'', ``-q'', ``-w'' and ``-z'' flags are ignored.
OPTIONS
-e If the ``-e'' flag is used, then as soon as the first cross posting of the article expires, all overview entries relevant to the
article are removed. Note that you cannot use both ``-e'' and ``-k'' flag at the same time.
-f When the ``-f'' flag is used, then expireover will use it as newsgroup list instead of <pathdb in inn.conf>/active file. A name of
``-'' is taken to mean the standard input.
-k When the ``-k'' flag is used, then articles are removed when they have been expired from all the groups they appear in. Note that
you cannot use both ``-e'' and ``-k'' flag at the same time.
-N If the storing method has self expire functionality, then the control file is ignored for that article by default. If the ``-N''
flag is used, expireover purges articles and overview entries with the control file.
-p Expireover makes its decisions on the time the article arrived by default. This means articles are often kept a little longer than
with other expiration programs that base their decisions on the article's posting date. To use the article's posting date, use the
``-p'' flag.
-q Expireover normally prints statistics at the end of process. To suppress this action, use the ``-q'' flag.
-s Expireover normally checks the existense of articles only if ``EXPENSIVESTAT'' of its storage method is set to ``FALSE''. To do
stat all articles regardless of ``EXPENSIVESTAT'', use the ``-s'' flag. See storage.conf(5) for ``EXPENSIVESTAT''.
-w Use the ``-w'' flag to ``warp'' time so that expireover thinks it is running at some time other then the current time. The value
should be a signed floating point number of the number of days to use as the offset.
-z If the ``-z'' flag is used, then articles are not removed, but their toknes are appended to the specified file. See the description
of delayrm in news.daily(8).
-Z If the ``-Z'' flag is used, then the lowest article numbers for each newsgroup after expiry are written to the specified lofile with
newsgroup name. This flag can be used when doing ``ctlinnd lomark lofile''.
