Default Best way to cut vertical slots through round posts?

A friend wants to build a fence using round, 6" diam cedar posts and 1"

He wants to cut slots through the center of the posts (3 slots) that are
just large enough to slide the boards through. *There are going to be
lots of posts - maybe 100 or more.

How would you go about forming these slots? *What sort of tool?


Oh My! That is a LOT of fence.

Need a little more detail on how the fence is going to be built. It
almost sounds like the 1x6's are being put into the slotted holes. Is
this a solid panel privacy fence or a post and rail fence?
