Hi,
we at Masaryk's University in Brno have NNTP server with write access only for
our B class network. So when I'm not at school (which is most almost everytime
:-) I must use our authenticated NNTP server which is running on different
port (1119). There are groups to which I'll never send any post (like jokes or
similar :-)) so I have them from normal NNTP server on 119. I use agent of
course. From time to time gnus is trying to fetch groups like:
Opening nntp server on news.muni.cz+nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi...
Opening nntp server on news.muni.cz+nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi-unix...
Which is BAD...
I have also this in my *Messages* now:
Retrieving newsgroup: nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi...
Opening nntp server on news.muni.cz+nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi...
Fetching headers for nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi...
Fetching headers for nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi...done
The group is written like this in gnus-newsrc-alist in newsrc.eld:
("nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi" 3 ((1 . 3728)) ((save 3540 3641 3671) (reply
3462)) (nntp "news.muni.cz" (nntp-port-number 1119)))
And there is also this directory in my gnus-agent-directory:
SnowWhite:/home/pavel/Mail/Agent/nntp$ ls -1d news.muni.cz*
news.muni.cz
news.muni.cz+nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi
news.muni.cz+nntp+news.muni.cz:cz.muni.fi-unix
SnowWhite:/home/pavel/Mail/Agent/nntp$
:-(( I think there is a bug somewhere when agent is trying to manage this
group with nntp-port number... Other info on request. You can try in on
news.muni.cz port 1119 yourself. You can read everything from it (hopefully)
but you can nor post.

You have to define two different virtual nntp servers and give them
different names. Use the `nntp-address' server slot to say where the
server is.
