If anyone could install this on my vb3 system, i would gladly pay! I only need a few usenet newsgroups implemented. If you want to take this on, PM me here please.

I would like to try this, where can I get the latest version recommended for VB3?

Sanjiyan 04-14-2004 12:12 AM
same here, I have used this hack since it came out, infact I think I was amoung the first people to use it.

But I too would like it to be released as a vB 3.0.0 hack, and not use a hack of a hack of a hack, as to which it seems at the moment.

As for additions, I'd like to see the new version (should one be released) to have a the admin CP options come with the hack, not be a addon part :)

And also ways of using a filter ie to remove words et al from subject headers, that user used in maillint lists (eg. [FFML], [yourmaillistname]) items, and also get it to not post RE: posts from mailing lists. but maybe thats just wishful thinking :)

Yeah, right now it's a 'hack of a hack' for sure. I am in the process of trying to get the mail list function working on a VB-2 test board in hopes that I will be able to learn enough from that to get it working fully on my VB-3 boards (which I haven't been able to do yet).
This hack desperately needs someone with PHP experience to bring all the parts together and update them for VB-3 and then to write some documentation that is unified (not parts of two people's work). I would be willing to help with the documentaton/instructions but I have no PHP experience.

I would help if I could, but I'm just new to Vbulletin. I am surprised that there seems so little interest in such a great feature.
Maybe it's a good idea to post it in the "modification requests" forum?

If I manually edit phpmyadmin, and remove the msgid, ref, and reset the isusenetpost to 0, and then manually run the gateway.php file, the post is uploaded properly....

Any ideas???

I will have to create an email message for each time the cron is ran to really test this I think... :( since I'm not seeing any of the output, but it is saying the post was sent properly...
I'm still having the same problem, and I can't figure out what the #$@#$ is causing it... Again, I have it set up as a vB cron, and if I use the "RUN NOW" button from the Scheduled Task Manager, the new posts are successfully sent without a hitch... but if I let it run as a cron, the $settings variables aren't showing up... when the row in the post table is updated, the
PHP Code:
$msgid = $u . '.' . base_convert ($msgid_date, 10, 36) . '@'. $settings[email]; 
ends up looking like: himerus.0@

Even the simple $settings[email] variable isn't showing up when it's running as a cron...

ANY IDEAS Would be appreciated...

I have lots of users registering specifically for the USENET access, and not having the posts work right on the cron is turning into a large problem.

Since you know php, that should not be difficult to debug.:)

The first thing the script does is retrieving the settings from the db. Now you only need to find out why the settings are not available. Come on, you have not tried hard.:)

Sorry, I don't use vb's schedules. I use cron from the crontab. Once you discover the reason, please post here. Others might like to know the reason.

Any progress on an official NNTP Gateway for vb3 ?

I've got it working at my photo site HERE but it was a pain to set up compared to the VB-2 hack which has an admin hack that adds a place in the admincp to manage news groups.
With the Vb-3 hack you have to edit your MySql tables through PHPMyadmin (a gui for Mysql) and it's also a real pain to get the cron thing to work so that it grabs messages from the Usenet every few minutes.
Once set up it works pretty well, it gets messages from the groups and you can post at the forum and it will eventually make it to the newsgroup on the Usenet.
If anyone needs a hand with the cron thing, let me know.

Chas.
