News Server

[Bob Martin]

Troy,
I have indeed heard of these folks. Giganews and Newsfeeds.com are 
outstanding choices for outsourcing Usenet.

I have also used their software. It is indeed first rate. But given 
price, scalability, performance, ease of administration and support 
(especially for FreeBSD), I'll stand behind my endorsement of DNews.
