<H3>Description.</H3>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
<strong>mbnntp</strong> is a RFC977 and RFC2980 compatible news server. It uses
|
|
|
|
|
the bbs echomail and news areas. To use the server, the user must login in the
|
|
|
|
|
news server with his bbs unix name and password, thus the user must exist on the
|
|
|
|
|
bbs. The access to the areas is the same as if the user would be logged into the
|

|
|
|
bbs. Only echomail areas are available to the user as newsgroups.
