Does anyone know of a news server for OS/2 so a person
can setup a private news group? I have seen FTP, TELNET
HTTP, etc., etc., but no news servers.

Thanks

The suespammers.org mail server is located in California, USA;
do not send unsolicited bulk e-mail or unsolicited commercial
e-mail to my suespammers.org address.

Changi. http://www.egnite.de is its home page. You can buy dnews for
OS/2 as well.

Regards,

Jack

I have just found that Lotus Notes/Domino does NNTP, although I haven't
tried setting it up myself.


I'd be interested to know if anyone has actually set it up as a News
Server...

Dan Casey said that for busier newsgroups changi wasn't
as reliable as one could wish, so he had been working with
dnews. Here changi has been fine, but that's only a few fairly
low volume groups and no binary postings.

I set up a newsgroup on my Lotus NNTP, but I could never get it to
stop delivering the messages in MIME format. Fine for clients like
Netscape, but shows up as a MIME attachment in ProNews, etc.

Using version R5.0.x
