rc-nntpd is a NNTP server inspired by rc-httpd. The scripts expect to be installed under /rc/bin/rc-nntpd. The rc_nntpd_dir setting in the script defaults to the installation directory. You can adjust the NNTP storage path in select-handler:11. For persisting connection states, the /tmp directory is used. One can use a dedicated ramfs, or any kind of directory which is not subject to snapshotting. The variable is in select-handler:14. The service can be started with listen(8). To have the port listening on the server, you can can use the tcp119 file: #!/bin/rc net=$3 exec /rc/bin/rc-nntpd/rc-nntpd >>[2]/sys/log/nntp For a TLS-encrypted connection, one can use tlssrv(8). A certificate must be created, and the correct listen(8) file added. TODO: - XOVER - posting - authentication
