Wouldn't it be better if computer 1 ran an nntp server which computer 2 could then connect to?
As you say, Robert, there's going to be an issue whereby computers 1 and 2 will have to negotiate the maximum number of sockets they will each use. Not much of a problem if the server supports 10 connections, but most (mine included) allow just 4 (though I managed to negotiate 8 with mine, after much argument). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Krig Sent: 27 November 2006 15:18 To: pan-users@nongnu.org Subject: Re: [Pan-users] Looking for NNTP relay software Even if you manage to re-route the traffic, wouldnt it be the same as if you had two newsreaders running? You would have to make sure that you don't create more connections than is allowed by your provider.
