NAME

       sndelgroup - delete an existing sn newsgroup

SYNOPSIS

       sndelgroup newsgroup...

DESCRIPTION

       sndelgroup deletes the specified newsgroups; i.e. everything under /var/spool/sn/newsgroup
       after removing the article ID entries in the sn database.  Do not use the shell command
       rm -rf /var/spool/sn/newsgroup
       because that will leave unreclaimed garbage in the database.

       You will need to own /var/spool/sn  in order to do this.

FILES MODIFIED

       /var/spool/sn/{.chain,.newsgroup},      newsgroup      directory       and       contents,
       /var/spool/sn/.ougtoing/news.server.name:port

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       SNROOT If  this  is set and is not empty, the value is used in place of /var/spool/sn, the
              default news spool directory.
