I've been digging some more into this, and suddenly, after a couple of • weeks
of taking ~2 minutes to start up, the NNTP is working properly again.  It
may be related to me opening the auth port on my home firewall, and
enableling the auth service inside....

I'm wondering if anyone else (who was having the problems before) has to
working now, or is it just me.  If it is just me, then we found the
problem...  it'd be weird, since the connection wasn't fast right when I
opened the port, but only after an hour or so...

So, anyone?

Dan,
the server is *not* doing auth right now.
(Please, see: http://news.lugnet.com/admin/nntp/?n=1052)
This is an exerpt from my network analyzer output: (sorry for the wrapped
lines..)
As you can see, there is only one TCP stream, and *no* auth requests (port
113).

(...) that actually proves my point... the server _is_ doing auths (I could show you my firewall logs)... the fact that they don't get to your firewall could explain part of the problem. I'm assuming that you get the delay before nntp works right? (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
