I am running nnrpd securely (port 563) from xinetd, and it seems to work
well, except for one small thing: The user is prompted for a username
and password AFTER subscribing to newsgroups, and before any posts have
been seen or downloaded.
Is it possible to ask for username/password BEFORE the list of
newsgroups to be subscribed to is downloaded?
Currently, I have the authentication in readers.conf:
auth outside {
key: outside_the_firewall
require_ssl: true
auth: "ckpasswd -s"
}
access ALL {
key: outside_the_firewall
newsgroups: *,!junk,!control,!control.*,!usno.aa.test
}
access failure {
newsgroups: !*
}
Any thoughts on how to do this?
