Hello Yutaka and World, I'm currently setting up a NNTP-Proxy for our internal network. I wonder if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a problem with delegate I found. I tested 8.7.8 and 8.9.1 on Win32 (NT 4 Server SP6a). Here's my configuration: command: delegated -P8119 -vt ADMIN=****@*** DGROOT=d:/proxy +=conf +=conf.nntp conf: DGOPTS="-vt" ADMIN=******@******* HOSTLIST=".localnet:localhost,***********" HOSTLIST=".trustednet:localhost,***********" RELIABLE=.localnet RESOLV=cache,dns TIMEOUT=shutout:10,dns:30,con:30,standby:600 LOGDIR=C:/LOGS/DELEGATE LOGFILE="${PORT}/[date+%Y%m%d].log" PROTOLOG="${PORT}/${PROTO}/[date+%Y%m%d].log:%C %D %r %u %S" ERRORLOG="${PORT}/errors/[date+%Y%m%d].log" TRACELOG="${PORT}/trace/[date+%Y%m%d].log" conf.nntp: PORT=8119 SERVER=nntp://user:password@dfn..de CONNECT=cache,direct CACHE=do EXPIRE=7d:nntp REMITTABLE=nntp PERMIT=nntp:news.cis.dfn.de/119:.trustednet CRON="0 5 * * * -expire 7" It seems that caching doesn't work (some log is attached). Did I understand something wrong? The directory 'd:/proxy/cache/nntp/all/net/easynet/news/de/auth/' does exists, but the correspondend file does not. The Cache files are created.
