Can anyone tell me why the following does not work with the tidnntp
component?
myPort := 119;
IdNNTP1.Connect('nntp.charter.net', myPort);
when i try this i get "bad command usage".
if i assign an intercept and an iohandler i get "connection closed
gracefully".
????????
Sorry, i am very new to this comp, and cannot even get it to connect to my
newsgroup server that is provided by charter. it does not require login or
anything, i have used many ng readeers to connect to it, and i wanted to
write my own. (for fun)
any help anyone can give to point me in the right direction would be greatly
appreciated. The only demo i could find for this comp is in VB not delphi.
Thanks,
Dave
