InterNetNews generator of peering configuration

Filling the following form will generate you entries to add to your INN configuration files.

 

DNS or IP of incoming connections from the peer (several can be listed, separated with a comma):

(*)

DNS or IP of outgoing connections to the peer (only one is expected, which may be the same as one just configured above for incoming connections):

(*)

Port for outgoing connections (note that the port for incoming connections cannot be changed, it is the one on which your local innd is listening):

(usually 119 or 433)

Feed path entry of the peer (several can be listed, separated with a comma):

(leave empty if it is the same as the DNS of outgoing connections)

Newsgroups to feed to the peer (a comma-separated list of newsgroups, whose syntax is explained in the configuration install guide):

Maximum article size of articles fed to the peer (leave empty if no limit applies; then the same limit as what your server accepts from others will applies):

bytes

 

Work in progress - syntax-checking (trimming spaces, unallowed chars, validate numbers, patterns, etc.) and other options will be added, like a text-only checkbox, local newsgroups to exclude, a password to authenticate, a maximum number of connections...
