Web Forum Access to CadSoft News Server

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 16 years ago

Hello everyone,

 

http://www.eaglecentral.ca/forums/

 

I want to announce (again) that the web forum access to the CadSoft news

server is up and running.  We encountered a few bugs that have been worked

out now.

 

This forums syncs with the CadSoft news server so all messages posted on

the web forums are uploaded back to CadSoft.  If you've seen any of my

messages over the last 6 months they have been posted this way. 

 

The default access is read-only so that no one can enter spam.  If you

would like to post via the web interface send me an email at

mailto:perms@eaglecentral.ca and include the email address you use to post

to the CadSoft news group or your account name on the forums.

 

A few reasons for doing this:

 

1)  Lots of companies now block port 119 (nntp) thinking it's a security

hole.  So you can't access the news server from inside those companies.

 

2)  Fast search across all newsgroups on the server.  You can restrict

the search to a single group if you'd like.

 

3)  Cross-platform compatibility.  If you work on multiple platforms like

I do then you might find it annoying that the news interface is very

different on every platform.  Now using Firefox or Opera or another browser

that is available on your platforms of choice, the interface is the same

everywhere.

 

4)  Some (like me) just prefer a web interface rather than a news client.

 

Anyways, check it out.  If you like it then use it.  If you don't,

continue to use your news client.  And we can all live in peace and harmony

Cheers,

 

James.
