Hello Jame.

in gentoo default portage there is only 2.5.x
is there any competor to running inn ?, i only know hamster on windows :)

so fidogate is stable ?
does it support control channel msgs for cancel msgs ?, or other nice things
that a user client might do with nntp protocol :)

ahh, okay, that one is new for me, if inn is upgraded, one need to recompile
fidogate, hard when fidogate is still not a ebuild :(

it makes sense to me that ./configure in fidogate needs as minimal includes
from inn to be compiled correct
but its still a shame that inn is like see 20 chickens fight of there
cornflakes :)
