I've got the hack installed (It's working GREAT thanks!)

The only thing I cannot figure out is how to pull a second newsgroup feed into different forum.

Any hints?

Add another row in your nntp_groups table with the appropriate settings.

Gilby,

Thanks for all of your help. We are now pulling in 4 newsgroups every 10 minutes. (We have a very busy forum)

By the way, for a newsgroup feed I highly reccomend http://www.newsranger.com Can't be beat for only $4.95 a month.

Hey Gilby

Suggestion for quick mod:

if you use old thread.isusenetpost trick admins can exclude at will (easy mod in search.php) usenet posts from appearing in "View new posts" (some users may prefer not to see 1000s of messages from usenet groups in there).

This would be a good addition.

Dont know if its my end or what, but when I run this:

http://www.skytronic-forums.com/forum/gateway.php

I get this (screen shot)

Anyone now what the problem?

Quick question gilby as I havent seen you on MSN for ages, does this work with 2.2.3b ?

Thanks

Oh BTW, how do I get the gateway.php to give me the nntp code feed back like it used to?

For starters, you're using IE. ;) IE thinks it's smart and does what it wants to do, instead of what the headers tell it to do. Anyways, I would guess you don't have your mime types set up correctly to display the text in the browser instead of elsewhere. So try fiddling around with the settings in IE.

I would assume it does work, but i have not tried it yet. I don't think the database changed much in the new version.

Put an echo in front of all the lines that start with $request and it'll print it out.

"
Most ISPs will not allow you to access the server from outside the network of the ISP. They only allow local users to use their news server. You may be able to use it if you put in your username and password that you use with that ISP."

So is there a way to login using your username and password to your ISP news server?

How do you include username and password I do not se anywhere in the settings to set those......
