They are collected on all my devices       but the settings aren't synchronized.              On a separate note, I had been using a variety of irc tools to chat online and       accidently discovered quassel core. After work that day I installed it on my       bastion host and, within a few hours, had a variety of irc servers connected,       channels subscribed, and now all my devices connect to it. I removed a variety       of logins so that my other clients wouldn't get booted. If I add an IRC channel       on a server, it's connected continuously on my server and that way I don't miss       conversations or an answer to a question I've posed. And, also, I don't have to       add/remove channels on all my other devices.              I'm looking for a similar setup for NNTP, whereby a server fetches the       newsgroups and I can have a remote client fetch it. That way I'm not having to       manually add/remove newsgroups on all my devices.              Is there something you're aware of that has these features? It has to fun on       linux, because that's all I use.              Thanks              Daniel Traechin       --- SBBSecho 3.10-Win32        * Origin: Digital Distortion: digdist.synchro.net (1:340/7)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 123 15/0 16/0 19/36 34/999 90/1 103/705 106/201 116/18       SEEN-BY: 120/302 331 544 123/130 131 140 153/7715 154/10 201/0 203/0       SEEN-BY: 203/124 218/700 221/0 1 222/2 227/114 229/426 452 1014 230/0       SEEN-BY: 230/150 152 240/5832 249/206 317 400 250/1 261/38 100 266/512       SEEN-BY: 267/155 275/100 280/464 5003 282/1031 1056 291/1 111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 298/26 300/5 6 310/31 317/3 320/119 219 322/0 757 340/0 7       SEEN-BY: 340/200 201 400 800 342/13 200 396/45 423/81 120 640/1321       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 801/161 189 2320/105 2452/250 3634/12 5020/715       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042       PATH: 340/7 400 261/38 320/219 203/0 280/464 229/426           |
