urd

URD is a program to download binaries from usenet (newsgroups) through a web interface. While some other programs offer similar services (e.g. Ninan, Sabnzbd), URD doesn't need external NZB files to function. URD lets you subscribe to newsgroups, and will then automatically analyse those ... [More] articles to form downloadable 'sets', consisting of all the files belonging to a specific upload. These sets are displayed, and through point and click you can be downloading a binary in no time. That isn't to say that NZB files are unsupported. URD allows both exporting of NZB files (from a set, for example) and importing. And it can use RSS feeds to download from directly. [Less]

inewsgroup

This app is provided absolutely free of charge. If you like it, please consider donating: 1.0.6 Release3/04/08 Fixed sending bug that ... [More] made it unable to post in some circumstances. 1.0.5 Release2/11/08 Firmware 1.1.3 support fixed. Thanks Tinman for feedback and testing. 1.0.4 Release2/1/08 Changes There was a bug where it didn't save preferences in 1.1.3. This should be fixed now. Proper DNS resolution-- see http://dtztech.com/blog/?p=20 for more details. No longer uses http request, should be able to access servers like usenet-access.com and others Few memory leak fixes Very minor text changes 1.0.3 Release12/31/07 Changes: "Real Name" option in preferences now in order to post with your name Dates are now visible in thread and group views Fixed numerous UI glitches Actually think that 'message from top' bug is finally gone. Fixed potential cause of crash on initial install 1.0.2 Release12/27/07 Another quick fix: bouncing support in the compose view, as well as fixed a bug where it didn't show the search filter correctly. 1.0.1 Release12/27/07 Small update: added bouncing support to the postview 1.0.0 Release12/27/07 Changelog: wow there are so many things: posting support! handles large lists /much/ better now :) search feature in subscription manager fixed  issue #24  --now can connect to servers that don't req auth, but auth helps transitions between views multi-line support in various views, most notably while viewing threads fixed bug relating to 'newsgroups' header being shown in body of articles fixed many memory bugs improved connection logic and performance more responsive UI and better handling of errors fixed transparency in the Default.png :) more economical use of screen in various views (and many issues not worth mentioning here. check the svn log and the issues page for more information) Screenshots Splash: Connecting: Subscriptions: Main View: Preferences Page: Refreshing Group: Group View: Thread View: Post View: NEWS12/18/07 Just letting you know there is a lot of development being done on iNewsGroup, and I hope to make a big release in the near future. Hang in there! :) 0.0.7 Release12/10/07 Fixed  issue #21  Now click on 'arrow' to read a group, removed annoying 'view' button. Fixed some saving issues. Fixed connection logic issue. Cleaned up some of the code. Note: subscriptionview /can/ be a bit unwieldly for those large usenet servers... echo "group.i.want.to.subscribe.to:" >> ~/.newsrcFrom the command line will add it manually, if you find that easier. 0.0.6c Release12/10/07 Another quick fix for  issue #20 . Thanks to Three60Guy for reporting it. Also improved look of the subscription view, faster/smoother scrolling, and leaving subscription view and coming back again doesn't force a reload. (BTW how did I ever get on this letter sub-numbering policy? sigh) 0.0.6b Release12/9/07 Quick fix/update patching error in subscribe code that resulted in wrong groups being added/removed. 0.0.6 Release12/9/07 Lots of fixes!! Fixed  issue #3 , issue #4 , issue #5 , issue #9 ,  issue #10 , issue #13 , issue #14 , issue #16 , issue #18 . Alpha-sort the subscription view Added "mark read" option to mark an entire newsgroup read. Greatly improved the connection code, no longer crashes when connecting with bad auth info, and is smarter about handling errors. Reduced font size in a number of places to make room for more text. Numerous UI improvements. 11/28/07 Currently busy with finals and whatnot, but should be making a big new release soon. :-) 0.0.5 Release11/13/07 Fixed  issue #11 . /wow/ I wish I'd caught that earlier. For shame. Available in the usual places. 0.0.4 Release11/12/07 Fixed DNS resolution issues. It's a dirty hack, but does the job for now until core helps me figure out how to link libresolv.a into my application. Basically we just make an http request to the server-- basically we're programmatically doing the 'safari' trick from before. Hopefully this makes the app more usable. :) 0.0.3 Release11/5/07 Newsgroup reader, Authentication support, manage subscriptions, read/unread status, threaded support, and a bunch of other things I forgot. Note, due to lame iphone DNS issues, you either need to add your newsgroup server to your /etc/hosts, or visit it in safari first (and potentially every time) you use iNewsGroup. The hacks the im applications use involve copying/modfying 'hosts' and that's won't really work here since there's no way for me to ship a hosts file containing your server. :-/. (Yes there were releases 0.0.2 and 0.0.1, but they were so beta that they weren't released publicly, and weren't worth writing up.) [Less]

postfilter

Postfilter READMEIntroductionpostfilter is an antispam filter for InterNetNews, a widely used NNTP server. Unlike cleanfeed - which checks remote articles, those messages sent through other sites - postfilter scans local posts and tries to reject spam and various abuses. Even if it's designed ... [More] for large sites, notably USENET servers, postfilter can be safety used also by small or private hosts that need a less strong protection against abuses. Requirements INN >= 2.4.0 compiled with perl support. It's recommended to use INN >= 2.4.4. Everybody should note that postfilter is fully compatible with INN 2.5 even if some new feature of INN isn't still used. A relatively recent version of Perl, 5.6 is enough, 5.8 is much better for postfilter The following perl modules: Date::Parse Net::DNS Digest Digest::HMAC Digest::MD5 DBI Features A higly configurable banlist (see banlist.conf(5)) DNSBL, URIBL and TOR support The maximum number of Messages Bytes Groups Followups Identical messages Rejected messages before being banned can be limited per UserID Domain IP address and per two units of time (by default: 1 Day and 10 Minutes) Headers can be deeply modified Builtin log system for data that need to be kept for legal reasons (notably sender's IP address of each locally posted message) with an expernal script (postlegal that is included in this package) which handles these logs (expiration of old logs and searches) A simple and fast dictionary of forbidden words (see badwords.conf) Easy to customize Installation Automatic installation: Run as root $ rc.news stop # Stop INND $ ./postfilter-install -c # Check dependacies $ ./postfilter-install -i # Install postfilter $ rc.news start # Start INND Installation by hands Read ./doc/tutorials/how_to_install_postfilter_by_hands.txt Troubleshooting Enable news.debug syslog facility adding the following line in syslog.conf #----------------------------------------------------------------- news.debug -/var/log/news/news.debug #----------------------------------------------------------------- Check whether postfilter is correctly installed: $ perl -wc [pathfilter]/postfilter/postfilter.pl $ postfilter-installer -c $ su root $ postfilter-installer -v Restart INND.

newzbrowser

08 nov 2006: For moment, it's really not a running program, it's just a way to make me learn python, but ... NewzBrowser will be, in a first step, a free and open source newsgroup reader. In a second step, NewzBrowser should be able to monitor keywords, report spam, display pictures, calculate newsgroup statistics, and more.
