I can confirm this Problem with INN 2.4.2 and slrn. If I connect and
try to post, slrn just hangs until I kill it. At the moment I use
stunnel as a workaround(posting works fine) but I would like to see
that problem fixed, too. IP-Based authentication does not work with
stunnel because everyone connects to nnrpd from localhost.
