(...) It amazes me that anyone thinks it's anything of difficulty. As soon as I thought about exactly how I set up Netscape to be able to post to newsgroups (Usenet or Lugnet), I realized that there is nothing to it, so no need to test it. When I (...)

Hi Todd! What kind of nntp server is LUGNET running? Is it an applet of some kind that hooks on to the nntp to create those wonderfull threads in the web-interface? If it is an applet, where can i get one ;-) ? -- Joakim jocke@arjay.nu (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
