Which is what I was testing, the only issue now seems to be propagation from
other servers to this one in a timely manner. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no pictures please!

Its actually been on their web site, even I found it.
The gist is this, although the server hardware was near its replacement date, it failed unexpectedly and had to be replaced. It took a while to build it and get the software working initially under a different name, ie reader in place of news, but now its all propagated through to the DNS servers I think and its working as before. However I do occasionally notice it drops the connecting and needs a prod, whether this is just configuration, I'm not sure. I'm using a different sever as my main one and ES as back up on this machine ere.. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

Thanks for that Brian. I hadn't checked their site as although it was
hanging posting and taking a couple tries updating groups it WAS getting through. Cheers, -- Shaun.

Your test failed, since it appeared in a non-test group. Indeed! Shame on you for posting to alt.compulsive.pedants. -- Shaun.

Slowly getting back up to speed here. It does tend to throw up a
connection error every so often. I've set up a mirror newsgroup connection with aioe.org - works very well.

Ah but is it getting posts from other servers like this on in a timely
manner, not today it seems. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no pictures please! "RJH" wrote in message ...

Did that ages ago on this ancient RISC OS computer. It visits both - but doesn't download duplicates. But not both of them carry all the groups I read. -- *Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed of cheques * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
