Synchronize USENET news progress with MT-Newswatcher
Authored by: jporten on Jan 06, '04 06:35:46PM
Or you could try another workaround, which I use so I don't ever have to switch news servers. My news reader is pointed to localhost, and I have an SSH tunnel from my computer to a computer connected to a news server. Voila, I roam, but my news account doesn't. Command in question is:
sudo ssh -L 119:news.yourisp.com:119 username@homeserverip
Only problem I have is that posting doesn't work -- anyone with ideas why?
