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

The title is: Email address domain Change the value: timelimit.yourserver.com To what ever you need, I dont know if this works 100% but by the look of it, and what the description of it says, it should do. As for the cron job, I do it a simple way and use MS Task scheduler, just point it to iexplorer.exe (or what ever browser) like this: "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://theborg.cjb.net/borg/forums/gateway.php The above is all one line, you can see if it works via wacking it in your RUN command line from the Start Menu (for us Windows users) Quote:

I've recently changed servers, and I am now getting this error when I try and pick up POP3 posts:
POP3: premature NOOP OK, NOT an RFC 1939 Compliant server The only thing that is different is the server environment, ie its a different webserver. Any ideas on how to fix this, so I can use the POP3 function again and feed my mailing lists to the forums? |

Any tricks or advice regarding avoiding the gateway.php from timing out when importing a large amount of posts?
I notice that some users have figured a way to do this. Any suggestions? |

It's okay, I got around it by using another news server.
