I'm trying to get nntpcached to authenticate reading/posting via AUTHINFO so that I may allow selected individuals access to the server based on a username/password. So, I added the following line to the nntpcache.access file: * * auth=user/pass;pipe which I assumed would allow anyone access to everything if they had a valid username/password. However it would only allow them to connect to the server, but not to read (or post) anything. Then, I changed the nntpcache.config file as follows: * * read,post,auth=user/pass;pipe with the same results. Users can connect (and it does actually verify username/password for connection), but cannot read/post. I know I'm probably missing something simple... Anyone know what I've done wrong? -- Eric Calvert, HGIC Caveland Connection http://www.caveland.net
