I suggest that you think again before using il.linux name for the 
mirrored Usenet group name.  Since there are several oafs in Illinois, 
USA, who think that il stands for Illinois, some Wise People are 
migrating the il hierarchy to israel hierarchy - to avoid junk messages 
from the Illinois dudes and dudettes.  So look into starting with 
israel.linux (or israel.comp.os.linux) rather than il.linux.
