It is working for me, but with limitations. Don't expect it to be perfect :-). The connection timeout sounds like a firewall issue.

Your vBulletin server needs to talk to your news server via port 119. You should be able to test this from your vBulletin server using a command shell window and:

telnet <news server) 119

I'm responding since most of us running this add-on depend on it a great deal and yet posts to this thread are far too often unanswered. I'll answer what I can. I use and depend on this add-on every day to keep my vBulletin forums and DNEWS server in "sync".
