Subj : *not* gating... To : Digital Man From : Time Warrior Date : Wed Sep 21 2005 01:15 am From Newsgroup: alt.bbs.synchronet To: Digital Man Just to clear this up in advance, I'm working on http://echomail.bbscrawler.com It's not completed however the hierarchy will be nntp style and newssync will be pulling echomail via NNTP into phpBB forums. Under no circumstances are these networks being "gated" into other networks. It is a backbone of nets using the nntp platform and nothing more. It is not a net in and of itself, no forums are being "gated" into any others and all networks are listed as seperated entities individually owned by their perspective NC's. Just as any BBS in Dovenet can do now, it will offer NNTP feeds for Sysops or other phpBB websites for Dovenet. It will not be gated into any other network nor will any forums be gated into any other forums. Echomail Message Groups at the prespecified url will be nothing more than a glorified web based Dovenet node. Also, moderators will serve the purpose of message ops on the site just as Sysops of telnet BBS's are required to keep their own node of the network running properly. I would like, when this service goes live, for you to have a moderator account on there for DoveNet. You will not have to login to it except to cut off any users access that you feel should not be allowed into Dovenet, just as you do now as the hub of your network. You would only need to login when and if you feel a user of the site's access requires being denied to your network. -- .---------------------------------------------------------------. | [TiME WaRRiOR] aka [Dave Kelso] AIM: Twar782 | +o Malkavia BBS | | www : synchsupport.net - malkaviabbs.com - xpresit.net | | www$: josephsjewelersonline.com - preferedinsurance.com | | @: time.warrior@malkaviabbs. com | \______________________________________________________________/ --- Synchronet 3.12a-Win32 NewsLink 1.76 * Malkavia - Chicago, IL - telnet://malkaviabbs.com --- Synchronet 3.13a-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
