I try exactly like you , but it stop ... here: |<WIN> 18:45 (5152) senonblockingSocket <15,1> =0 |19:19:00.82 (5152) 0+0: AcceptByMain: Timeout <Children=0, timeout=15> I did copy & paste the line on my Win2K machine and got like this: ... 05/01 13:00:54.26 [756] 0+0: --INITIALIZATION DONE: 8.11.3 on WindowsNT-- (WIN) 00:54 [756] setNonblockingSocket(15,1)=0 05/01 13:01:09.28 [756] 0+0: AcceptByMain: TIMEOUT(children=0, timeout=15) This is very usual log output from DeleGate right after it has started and is waiting a request from a client. It stays stopped until a request will come from a client, of course. |It looks that delegate need some .dll or something .ocx ... wherever |...which is not present under win 2000 ... |Any idea ? Why do you think so? As long as I know, it runs commonly on any Win32 architecture, especially on WinNT series. |Hmm. So I examined the active file of the newsgroup "test.group" at |DGROOT/etc/news/groups/test.group (DGROOT is "C:/Program Files/DeleGate" |by default) It was like this: | |00000 00000 0 X C:/Program Files/DeleGate/cache/nntp/-.-/spool/test/group | |Both the drive symbol ":" and the space character is not cared. By the way, I coped with this ":" and SPACE problem in 9.0.1-ALPHA, which is distributed at ftp://ftp.delegate.org/pub/DeleGate/alpha/ You don't need edit a group file manually with this version and later.
