Re: suck is so slow

If you are connecting to a server running INN, it is configured to throttle article flow to sucking feeds by default. You will see articles arrive in a regular pattern of say 20 articles, pause, 20 more, pause. The only way to correct it is to get the provider to recompile INN with one of its op

Re: Suck and innxmit

The problem lies with inn, not suck. I can't remember the fix - I think it's somewhere in the inn FAQ. Check that you have added your local hostname to /etc/news/hosts.nntp (a guess at the fix). Use get-news for collecting your news. It will work fine once you get over this problem. > give comman

Re: Suck and innxmit

Tapio Vaattanen: > Unknown reply to "/var/lib/suck/153-155" -- 480 Transfer permission denied You either need to configure suck to use the NNTP POST command, or add "localhost" to (I think) /etc/news/hosts.nntp to allow it to use the NNTP IHAVE command. -- Please read
