Hello! Iam trying to get news reader to work for hours. Is it small amount of time for that? :)
I give a try with two different news servers. One free and one with authentication. No one work. Also I tried on different sites with different hosting companies. Nothing.
I dont get anything as respond. Empty list.
in errors/.nntp/ I got fiew errors like this one:
"Unable to establish connection to freenews.netfront.net on port 119 failed
With Error #110 : Connection timed out "
Any idea? Please...
Thanks

The timeout error indicates that PHP tried to establish connection to your NNTP server and failed to do so within a reasonable amount of time. Perhaps you don't have permissions to connect to this NNTP server?

The error comes from PHP not the forum, what you can trying doing is to try using PHP to connect to the NNTP server via:
<?php $fp = fsockopen("host", 119, $errno, $errstr) or die($errstr); ?>
See if that works, you can also try to increase the timeout value in the forum's NNTP settings.
