There is a bug in b3 that does this. It has been reported by several others. I moved the createPort() call for the NNTP port before the call for the createPort for the HTTP port in nntpcache.c. Now the NNTP port works, and the HTTP port doesn't! It is probably a uninitialized variable somewhere. While you are in the code, you might want to comment out the call to watch_init(). It bugs me when people try to spy on me without telling me first. Tom
