Goldstein Created: Sat, 12 Oct 2002 12:32 AM Updated: Sun, 6 Jun 2004 2:25 PM Environment: Operating System: Other Platform: Other Description: There are a bunch of outstanding NNTP protocol bugs. 1. Use of STAT, ARTICLE, HEAD, or BODY with an article number argument does not properly set the current article pointer to the current value. 2. For empty groups the current article pointer is set to 0 rather than being left invalid when the LISTGROUP or GROUP commands are used. This is contrary to RFC 2980. 3. For the NEWNEWS or NEWNEWSGROUP commands an absent or ill-formed date parameter is improperly handled. A response indicating data will be sent is delivered to the client, and then a NPE is generated, resulting in a close of the connection. Instead, the server should return a 501 syntax error 4. OVER/XOVER is provided by the server, but the LIST OVERVIEW.FMT is not supported, contrary to the strong recommendations of RFC 2980 I've got fixes for all of these - am waiting for the current discussion of server architecture to resolve before I post them. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
