WendzelNNTPd

WendzelNNTPd is an IPv6-ready Usenet server (NNTP daemon) with the main goal to maximize usability on the console level. WendzelNNTPd achieves this by breaking down complicated things into an easy-to-use configuration file and tool. The server is portable (Linux/*BSD/*nix), supports AUTHINFO authentication, contains support for Access Control Lists (ACL), Role-based Access Control (RBAC) and supports invisible newsgroups. It currently supports MySQL and SQLite backends.

Features

  • Runs on Linux, OpenSolaris, *BSD
  • Supports IPv6
  • Database abstraction layer (supports SQLite3 and MySQL)
  • Tiny (only about 7,500 Lines of Code)
  • Written in C
  • Supports NNTP authentication (AUTHINFO USER/PASS)
  • Supports advanced ACL and role based access control (RBAC)
  • Automatically prevents double-postings
  • Supports "invisible newsgroups"
  • It is open, free software! :)
