Re: Question Can I install HyperNews? I am not an administrator. (Young Jik Kwon)

I added the following to the top of the installation page:

To install HyperNews, you will need to either have root access on your Unix system, be a web administrator, or have the web administrator do some configuration of the http server for you. This configuration will need to be done a couple times until things are working the way you want, and thereafter most things can be managed via HyperNews on the web rather than through the shell and file system.

If your server already allows you to create CGI bin directories or use CGI scripts, then that may be enough to go on. The main hurdle is that you need to set up a directory that the server can write in, but you probably don't want to allow just anyone to write in it
