Dear Mr. Yutaka, Our proxy server requires a userid and password. I found, that it should be provided with MYAUTH parameter. I gave the following command to DeleGate -- dgX_X_X.exe -v -P119 SERVER=nntp://server SSLTUNNEL=pxhost:port MYAUTH=userid:pwd ADMIN=you . The following trace appeared on the DeleGate console -- 10/01 09:08:33.63 [271] 1+0: MYAUTH=mukulg:**** for http-proxy::0 10/01 09:08:33.63 [271] 1+0: SSL-TUNNEL<< news.server:119 10/01 09:08:34.28 [271] 1+0: SSL-TUNNEL>> HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden^M 10/01 09:08:34.28 [271] 1+0: ConnectToServer: DFLT=nntp://news.server: 119 REAL=://:0 10/01 09:09:19.40 [271] 1+0: [20] ConnectToServer connect failed 207.25.253.14:1 19 [45.11s] errno=10060 10/01 09:09:19.40 [271] 1+0: ERROR: cannot connect to nntp://news.server:119 - -1 10/01 09:09:19.40 [271] 1+0: E-C: Can't connect: delglp144:1139 => nntp://news.server (timeout) It seems to indicate that SSL-TUNNELING is not enabled on our HTTP proxy server.. Can you think of any other way using DeleGate, to connect to a NNTP server through a HTTP proxy..? I'll appreciate your response..
