Utilities: Administration: Sites: New Site: NNTP

NNTP IP address

Specifies the NNTP IP address to be used for this site. When ListManager receives NNTP connections, it displays a banner identifying the server. You may want incoming mail for this site to see the site's host name for the banner. When NNTP clients connect to the IP address(es) specified here, ListManager will display the site's hostname in the banner. Which IP address an NNTP client uses to connect to your ListManager server depends on the DNS entry for the hostname.

The IP addresses displayed for these options are determined by a server configuration setting in: Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Machine/Node Settings: IP Addresses: Machine IP Addresses.

We recommend that each site use its own IP address. If you have multiple sites using the same incoming IP address, they should all use the same host name. Otherwise, the wrong NNTP banner may be used for NNTP, as it does not know which site the incoming NNTP connection is intended for.

NNTP banner

Specifies the banner for NNTP connections. By default, the banner displayed will show the host name:

200 yoursitehostname.example.com Lyris ListManager NNTP Service ready (posting ok).

Any text specified here will replace the host name in the incoming NNTP banner. Note: If you have the rebrandable version of ListManager, your name will replace "Lyris ListManager" in the banner.

We recommend that each site use its own incoming IP address. If you have multiple sites using the same incoming IP address, you may wish to specify a "generic" incoming NNTP banner so the host name for another site is not used. Otherwise, the NNTP banner may show the host name for a different site, as ListManager does not know which site the incoming NNTP connection is intended for.
