I think, that the version 0.99.* does'nt work correctly with
username/password authentication. I used it only with ip-address
specifications. The implementation of 0.99* does'nt allow to user g++ >=
3.0! I have created new versions of socket++ and NewsCache and also release
RPM'S for easy installation. But at the moment i'm very busy, so i can only
upload the new Release Candidates. If you have installed all necessary
autotools, the installation should be not complicated. Little Installation
Guide:
$ wget
http://members.aon.at/hstraub/linux/socket++/socket++-1.12.12rc2.tar.gz
$ wget http://members.aon.at/hstraub/linux/newscache/NewsCache-1.2rc5.tar.gz
$ tar xzf socket++-1.12.12rc2.tar.gz
$ cd socket++-1.12.12rc2
$ ./autogen
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr
$ make
$ su
$ make install
Now NewsCache
$ tar xzf NewsCache-1.12.12rc5.tar.gz
$ cd NewsCache-1.12.12rc5
$ ./autogen
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --with-pam
$ make
$ su
$ make install
Follow the instructions in doc/newscache-pam.txt and the manual page
newscache.conf.
Removing the installed parts with:
$ make uninstall
$ make uninstall
Please send your experencies to this list.

Betreff: NewsCache authentication
I have 99.22p1-1 (rpm) installed on redhat Fedora 1. Everything works fine
when I allow full access.
When I try to use unix authentication I am refused access. Here is the
configuration block:
Client 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 {
allow read post
List !*
Read !*
PostTo !*
Authentication unix:read:postto
}
