NNTP access via a browser.

[Raji Arulambalam]

How do I web enable or publish my NNTP Server, in a way that users can
read/write to
the newsgroups through a web browser instead of using a news reader like OE.
I want my internal users to access this only.

Something like what Microsoft uses.

Using Win2000 IIS 5.

I have searched Google etc and have not found one (free). Anybody else using
this.??

Well, not free, but the Wildcat! Interactive Net System offers a
centralized mail system that is virtualized for multiple possible
reader/writer interfaces/presentation:

- email
- web
- nntp
- text mode (telnet, ANSI, WAP, etc)
- qwk/opx
- rime
- fidonet
- Windows GUI frontend

etc.

So once you set it up once, it open for multi-device clients.

Example:

http://www.winserver.com login as guest, pwd quest,

you will see mail forums accessable by the guest account

news://news.winserver.com You can login anonymous or using the guest
account.

telnet://bbs.winserver.com test mode access

and if you download our windows GUI frontend, you will the same forums.

So single setup, multiple device client interface.

It also has an SDK that can be used to access the mail system. Gateway
software use the SDK to gateway mail into other networks in a peer to peer
fashion (Fidonet, Rime, QWK, NNNTP). In addition, QWK/OPX allows you to
download mail to read offline using QWK/OPX mail readers.

I was reading another post and saw that the ASP.Net forums will be
integrating with NNTP. I'm not sure when this is going to be released
though.
