 Winroute- Newsgroups in Outlook Express
Author: Hacksaw 
Date:   08-11-02 19:04

Hi,

I've been using winroute pro for some time now, having to cope with all sorts of weird problems. The last one to tackle is the problem reading newsgroups on the 'client' PC (using Outlook express). It works perfectly on the 'Winroute' PC but not on the client

My config.. 2PC's both running Win98 1st edition, both BEHIND NAT in Winroute

PC1
1 NIC 192.168.0.1 for internal network (subnet 255.255.255.0)
1 NIC 192.168.0.3 for cablemodem (subnet 255.255.255.0)
- (both no WINS, no DNS, no Gateway)
1 virtual adapter (Efficient Networks PPoE) for the cablemodem
- obtains auto-IP, DHCP for WINS, but no DNS, no Gateway

PC 2
1 NIC 192.168.0.2 for internal network (subnet 255.255.255.0)
Gateway = 192.168.0.1, no WINS,
DNS host = 192.168.0.1
domain = ? (should there be something here?)
search order = 192.168.0.1

In Winroute
- No DHCP, No mailserver, DNS server = ON, Proxy=ON
- NAT (only) on Efficient Networks PPoE adapter

I read something about Newsgroups using NNTP as protocol. It should be supported by Winroute.....

Anyone else with this problem??? Please help!!

Does anybody know how to configure Winroute PRO so I can use MS Messenger in a client PC?. Where in the internet is winroute anyway? I just cant´t find it anymore.

Read my post on my problem with reading newsgroups. There you can see my exact config of PC's and Winroute. MS Messenger works perfectly on that config (on both PC's). Leave 'use proxy' unchecked in Messenger. NAT will take care of it.

Now please help me with MY problem.. What do I need to configure to read newsgroups on the network PC???
