ingeborgdot Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) I need some direction on setting up usenet and all of the fixins. What is the best tutorial out there, or is there even one on how to setup for a usenet system? I'm going to be searching, but thought I'd ask before I do. Thanks. SOLVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited December 6, 2022 by ingeborgdot Quote Link to comment
MrGrey Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I don't know of any tutorial (specific to Unraid). You might want to understand that Usenet predates "the Web" by a decade. There is no... 3 hours ago, ingeborgdot said: usenet system? You search and you will find. Be humble and you will be accepted. Be a torrent whore and... well... to each their own. MrGrey.

ingeborgdot Posted November 29, 2022 Author Share Posted November 29, 2022 I have since found some info that helps some. No videos so to speak, but written content. I guess that is better than nothing. I'm almost ready to get started, but now the daunting task of choosing which provider. Too many of them. Everyone seems to have a different opinion on them too. I like this one, but I don't like that one etc. Maybe I'll find the one that suits me best, but I don't know what will suit me best because I have never used them before. Is there one that is best suited for someone in the US? Or does it even matter? Quote Link to comment
hernandito Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I believe there are one or two major providers of the Usenet backbone… the well known Usenet providers are basically re-sellers of one of those backbones. I have been on Supernews for over a decade… it never lets me down. It finds stuff that has been posted for like 5+ years. The other challenge is to get into the better indexer sites…. For the most part they are invite only… faves of mine are omgwtfnzb and nzbplanet… Finally you configure your *arr dockers to automate everything. You will need a downloader docker…. NZBGet is my preference…. There are a lot of dots to connect…how indexers, downloader, and *rr’s talk to each other. But once you get it all down, you can’t imagine life without it. SpacerInvader’s videos will really help you connect them dots. it will be a fun journey. Quote Link to comment

MrGrey Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 A geek might look for an indexer. MrGrey. Quote Link to comment
