News ServerΒΆ
Zax-type nym servers deliver messages to their nyms by posting
them on a news group. aampy is the tool underneath nymphemeral that
downloads those messages via a news server. The default news server
configured in nymphemeral.cfg
is set to localhost
, port
119
. This default is useful if you use stunnel to encrypt the
connection between localhost:119
and your actual news server,
exactly what was done on Connections. If you followed that
section, you do not need to configure anything.
Note
nymphemeral should be ready to tunnel your news feed via Tor!
If you want to connect directly to the news server, you should edit
nymphemeral.cfg
and change the address and port of the news
server appropriately. Unfortunately, the python 2.7 nntplib
module does not support connections over SSL/TLS.
