Yes, absolutely.  See the description of xrefslave in the inn.conf manual
page.  Note that when this is enabled, you must also forward postings to
the master server (rather than processing them locally) using
nnrpdposthost and you must have only one upstream feed.

    Please send questions to the list rather than mailing me directly.
     <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/questions.html> explains why.
