groovesalad, try looking for a line something like this...

Xref: pd2nf1so.xxx.xxxxx.xxx alt.satellite.tv.crypt:30168601

**Note the number on the very end of the line...thats the message ID of that current message, alt.satellite.tv.crypt was the group I used for testing.

The "X's" are my provider

**Below is what I see doing a manual syncrinization from the CP, note for newsgroup I am using my ISP's new service...most offer them for free and no password is needed...ask you provider if they offer newsgroups and use there service and then you wont need to use a username/password

In the example below you can see it logs into the first group, grabs 2 new messages and then logs into the second group and it doesnt grab no new messages from the second group

==========================================

2 group(s) gatewayed.
Logging in to news.xxxxxxxx.com, group alt.xxxxxx.xxxx
Getting message number 30802625: New thread; 'Checking something - don't read' from Zap
Getting message number 30802626: Thread found; 'Re: More on T3' from lawdogjr
Logging in to news.xxxxxx.com, group alt.satellite.tv.crypt

==========================================

**Note if I started download and knew the last message was 30168601 , then I would change this to something like 25068601 and then 20168601 through phpmyadmin and download it in chunks *instead* of attempting to download them all at once by changing to "1"...try to decrease that number a bit at a time and note that everytime you go back to phpmyadmin *after* you do this the number will change back to the last message count...in this example 30168601, keep decreasing in large chunks and eventually you'll find you can't download nothing but the newest messages...this is what worked for me anyways and not sure how others did this.
