This hack provides a gateway to any NNTP newsgroup such as those from Usenet and other newsgroup servers. Selected newsgroups are imported from your news server and post on the forum are sent out to the newsgroup. This hack was greatly inspired by fastforward's usenet gateway hack. This one is a complete rewrite of that hack written in PHP and works with vB 2.2.2.
Installation: Installation is pretty simple. No modifications to the vB php files are needed and it simply consists of dropping in the files to your forums directory, running the SQL modifications, and modifying the newsgroup settings for your desired newsgroups. For the complete installation details, read the readme.txt file. Here are some of the features:
For control panel integration, please check out GameCrash's Graphical Interface addition. What's not in it that was in fastforward's usenet gateway hack:
There is still lots that I'd like to add to it, but this is competely functional for basic newsgroup gateway support. It is most likely not free of bugs. If you have questions, suggestions or annoyances, please post in this thread. vb3 support lierduh modified this to provide support for the beta versions of vb3. When the release candidates of vb3 come out, I plan to add support for vb3 and add other features to this hack. If you have suggestions for new features, let me know. E-mail gateway support New in this version, you can now gateway with an email list. This will fetch emails from a POP email account and send via php's mail function to the mailing list's email address. To set up the list, in the newsgroup field, enter in the email address to send outgoing posts to. In the server field, enter in the pop3 server, and in the username and password fields enter in, you guessed it, the username and password to your pop account. Note: the email gateway capabilities has not been fully tested, so it might not work with your POP server. Also, it does not work in combo with a news<->forum gateway in the same forum (you can use either kind though in differnet forums within your forums). Show Your Support

If you want to change how this works, you can go to line 77 and change the if-else statement that does this. So, you could comment out stuff something like: Code:
// if ($group[lastmsg] == 0){ $date = strtotime($message[date]); //} else { //$date = time(); //} |

Just installed this. (In fact upgraded from fastforwards hack). Everything seems to work just fine from what I can tell.
Haven't tried the outgoing messages yet. Is there a way to disable peoples profiles being printed on them etc, as I don't think my members would be too keen on that. Also does it support proper threading of messages? One problem I've noticed straight away is that is doesn't truncate usenet names, meaning the thread starter table is often over long. In fastforwards hack the quoted text appeared in italics, any way to do that here? I'm sure I'll have more comments when I have more time to mess with it |

Ok. I installed it and ran gateway,php and it seems to work. Since I am new to this, a) what would be a commandline for crontab and b) anyone know of a public server? I'm on cable access and we just use "news" which isn't really a server.
