[»] absolute piece of crap

Nowhere near ready for distribution. Only one config file with only one variable.

Installation requires placing files in /var/www/phpnewsgroups

Not flexible for linux installations with docroot of /var/www/html/...

Don't bother with this until it's been polished.

Hi

PHPnewsGroups is very simple to configure in another docroot
Did you read the INSTALL document file ?
You just have to configure the 'confDir.cfg' file (_txtpath variable) and config.inc.php in PHPnewsGroups dir for Logs files.

Here's an example for your case even if it's obvious ;)

* In your 'confDir.cfg' :
_txtpath=/var/www/html/phpnewsgroups

* In config.inc.php :
$logs="/var/www/html/phpnewsgroups/logs";

Simple isn't it ? :)

I hope it'll help you and you'll be able to use my tool

Cheers

Hadramos
