NNTP server
My ISP blocks NNTP traffic. To get round this, I propose to use my Squeze VPS, which has direct access to the Internet, to collect news articles from a few selected groups, and access these over SSH (or something like that).

To get round this, I propose to use my Squeze VPS, which has direct access to the Internet, to collect news articles from a few selected groups, and access these over SSH (or something like that). Just an additional idea. There are also NNTP servers that can be contacted via nntps:// and so using a different port (usually 563, instead 119) that could have been not blocked by your ISP and thus you can access directly from your computer :-? Can anyone advise me on which package(s) to install, bothe on my desktop, and on the VPS? If you want to read the messages directly from the VPS server, you will have to get a connection (via shh or by using a VNC, depending on your needs) and then choose the desired newsreader client program (text or GUI based, there are many options). If you are planning in setting up a newsserver at the VPS side to act as a caching news proxy, leafnode used to be a good option.

From their FAQ: My service provider blocks port 119! Is there an alternate port for your news server? Yes. If your provider blocks the standard NNTP port (119), or if he degrades connections on this port, please change the port setting in your newsreading software to port 8119 (the server's name stays News.Individual.NET). If you need port 80 (the standard HTTP port) for reading news, please use Port80.Individual.NET as server name and 80 as the port number. There is also the option to access the server through NNTPS / NNTP over SSL. The server name is News.Individual.NET and the port number is 563 (the standard NNTPS port).

Upgrade to etch kills nntp server authentication
As either root or user I start gnus and it seems to hang for a while, but eventually I get the message: nnetp (news.snet.sbcglobal.net) open error: ''. continuue? If I continue, my subscribed newsgroups are listed, but without any readable messages. For example: * linux.debian.user Once when I tried to download messages in that group, the group name was replaced with: *: e100: 3th0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full duplex Could it be that I'm no longer being authenticated to the news server? I'm forced to work from console because my X server won't start either because it insists on creating a new authority file (~/.serverauth.3044) that neither shows up nor works.

It is simply a display thing and the group name is not actually replaced. Your connection problem earlier is probably simply because the ethernet link was not up. Try reconnecting after the link up message shows. Could it be that I'm no longer being authenticated to the news server?

Re: Upgrade to etch kills nntp server authentication
Kushal, Thanks for the reply. I find that for some reason I can now access the NNTP server, and so the problem disappeared. Now I'm on to address other problems as you will see in my second query to the group. Haines -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

NNTP-Server fuer wenige Nutzer?
Hi zusammen, ich moechte fuer eine kleine Nutzergruppe (zunaechst 3 Personen) einen News-Server mit wenigen Newsgroups einrichten. Der Zugriff soll ueber beliebige NNTP-Clients (hauptsaechlich Thunderbird) moeglich sein, vorzugsweise mit User/Passwort-Authentifikation und Verschluesselung via SSL. Ein Kontakt zu anderen News-Servern ist nicht geplant. Gibt es ein einfach zu konfigurierendes Debian-Paket zu diesem Zweck, vorzugsweise aus main/stable? Welche Software wuerdet ihr mir empfehlen?

OT: anyone offer web hosting AND nntp server?
Hi, Sorry for the OT post but I didn't know where else to turn. I'm looking for inexpensive web hosting to host my personal web site. I would also like access to an nntp server to read a few newsgroups in the comp and sci hierarchies. Does anyone know of a company that offers both services together? I did a good amount of research on this and couldn't find any that do. Why do I want access to an nntp server? Because (1) I don't have access to one through an ISP; (2) the free servers like free.teranews.com are incredibly slow; and (3) I don't want to read newsgroups on a web browser as with groups.google.com. I guess I could always pay for both hosting and nntp separately but it seems like a waste. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Re: NNTP server.
I want to install an NNTP server and news reader so that I can read some news groups I am interested in. The machine I have runs on Hamm, and has very little free disk space (about 145 M in /usr and 20 M in /var). However, I am interested only in a few newsgroups, mainly comp.text.tex. Could anyone provide a few hints on how to proceed, and on possible security problems? You should try Leafnode. It's a small-scale news server intended for dial-up connections and the like. It's perfect for off-line news reading.
