I really proboally should look for the answer in this thread since it is proboally listed, but I looked through 10 pages and could not see a similar problem.

The USENET posts post only once, but in my statistics box on teh main page, it doubles the amount of posts by all the posts in my rec.gambling.poker forum.

http://www.goodpokerforums.com/ is my forum.

Ok, I have everything installed and only need to insert an NNTP server name. I have my own domain and website, how can I find out if my host offers NNTP (without having to email them and ask)? News.domain.com doesn't work, what else should I try?

Go to giganews.com I use them and they are pretty good.

Thanks!

Is there a way to prefix the usenet posts so people can tell which ones are local and which ones arent?

If not no biggie,

Thanks again for all the hard work,

-Jason

Ok..this is frustrating, everything is working except now I can import posts fine but none of my posts are being submitted to usenet!

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Maybe something in my settings wasn't done right? For organization I have my domain name and I have this for the email; "no-mx.forums.MyDomain.com"

With MyDomain being my sites real domain. is that corrent, or should the syntax be emailAddress@mydomain.com?

Pardon me for asking but how would I use the Google news?

I want a Christian based newsgroup from Google which I found but I do not know how the addressing works.

When you say "addressing" are you referring to the address of the newsgroup? If you don't mind, post a link to the Google newsgroup and i'll tell you what the address is.

It should be in the format of something like alt.religion.christian or something like that.

<a href="https://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&group=soc.religion.christian" target="_blank">http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...gion.christian</a>

example:
soc.religion.christian.bible-study (would this be it?)

I'm 100% new to this.

James T Brock 10-19-2004 04:59 AM

I think soc.religion.christian is the group you want to set as the address, as soc.religion.christian.bible-study is a different group.

So where it says usenet address use this; soc.religion.christian

BTW -- if you're new and you're trying to install this, you need to know that in-order to get the news you'll probably need some kind of NNTP news server. I'm using giganews located at http://giganews.com, it's not free though. :)
