hmm, does it work with smaller newsgroups? such as php\'s one which have ~30 groups.
when i wrote my own reader (using fsockopen also), i found that stalls are usually because of my own error(eg, article not found, etc) you can take a peek at jim winstead\'s code from http://lists.php.net/snapshot.tar.gz it\'s the code powering http://lists.php.net. i learnt a lot from reading his code! Good Luck! >For example: server A may have 90,000 groups to list and >stalls after transferring >70,000 or so. On the other hand, >server B may have only 300 groups to list and >stalls after >250. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
