There is normally no differences between these two snapshots (source
code has not changed).
Could you please try again with tomorrow's snapshot?

Hi Paul,
Could you please try:
openssl s_client -connect your-server:563
and tell whether it works?
That is to say you get the 200 or 201 reply from the server. You can
then type QUIT to close the NNTP session.
You can also test the command with my news server if you want to compare
the results:
openssl s_client -connect news.trigofacile.com:563

Isn't the local IP the one of news.bbs.geek.nz? :)
The error might be linked to that change that occurred in Mozilla
software last year:
https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2014/04/24/exciting-updates-to-certificate-verification-in-gecko/
Also have a look at that thread about Thunderbird:
https://support.mozilla.org/fr/questions/1011915

There's something wrong in the configuration of the client, then.
Because the second line of news.notice should mention port 563:
Aug 15 19:32:17 news nnrpd[24110]: starttls: TLSv1 with cipher
DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits) no authentication
Aug 15 19:32:17 news nnrpd[24110]: denver.dinauz.org (37.59.56.11)
connect - port 563

The transmission of username/password should be encrypted, you're right.
Yet, not everybody follows that best practice!
