Hey,

i am just trying to use NNTP(S) to read/write from/to FTN Messageboards.
Do you have experience with it already and can share something about it?
I currently try it with Thunderbird (linux).

sbbs/ctrl/services.ini looks like that for NNTP(S) now

; Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP)
[NNTP]
Port=119
Command=nntpservice.js -f -na

[NNTPS]
Enabled=true
Port=563
Options=TLS
Command=nntpservice.js -f -na

so i have added -na to allow users who authenticate with an BBS account only.

anything else? Who uses NNTPS regularly to read and post? 
Or is that just something you should not use or offer as a feature to users?

Mindsurfer
