Hi guys,

Is it possible to install some simple NNTP server into the router with message bases stored on an USB stick?

Sorry if it's a stupid question, I'm new to tweaking the firmware.

Well, I'll try to concretize my question a bit. Has anybody tried it and got NO success for a reason that makes further tries absolutely pointless?

I'm trying to estimate is it worth to get into all this custom firmware building stuff :)

Based on all the other complex software that works on the WL-500g there is a good chance a simple nntp server will work.

Yep, that was not that difficult actually :)

http://infa.abo.fi/~patrik/sn/ seems to work quite well.

P.S. If you know some other simple nntp server (besides leafnode and newsd and not cnews or inn of course) that has a builtin support for authentication, please let me know.

And btw, I'd like to thank everybody on this forum (with Oleg being in the first place :) who contributed to make it possible. This really rocks.
