| News Server Question
I just moved from Cox to Mediacom because of a house move. Cox had three servers (East, Central & West) with 4 connection threads allowed to each. Are there multiple servers with Mediacom (to use with a multi server news tool such as BNR2) and what is the maximum thread connection limit? The only server they will tell me about is netnews.mchsi.com
Thanks. |

| reply to rpass You should be able to connect multiple times to that server however. I've had no problems in the past having 3 threads go at the same time. It is a free service though, you might want to look into a pay news service such a giganews or usenetserver. Much better retention. -- "The most overlooked advantage of owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against whacking them around a bit." |
