OVDB_SERVER(8)		   InterNetNews Documentation		  OVDB_SERVER(8)

NAME
     ovdb_server - Overview helper server for nnrpd

SYNOPSIS
     Use ovdb_init to start ovdb_server

DESCRIPTION
     If the readserver parameter in ovdb.conf is true, ovdb_init (if not invoked
     with  the	-r  flag)  will start as many ovdb_server processes as the numr-
     sprocs parameter states.

     ovdb_server opens the overview database, and accesses it on behalf  of  the
     nnrpd reader processes.

     To shut down ovdb_server, send a TERM signal to the process ID mentioned in
     ovdb_server.pid  in pathrun (note that the rc.news script already does that
     if used to shut down INN).  The parent process will shut down its	children
     and wait for their exit before exiting itself.
