My isp has a terrible usenet feed. It's always out of date. I would like to setup a usenet server to only handle the new groups that I like (no binaries). I have two questions:

Is it possible to have a usenet server (say Leafnode) handle only certain news groups and ignore all others?

How does one get a usenet feed?

yes, leafnode is the right programm for your problem. search the net for free NNTP servers, there should be quite a few that carry text groups for free (at lease there are a couple here in germany)
