For now i'm using newszilla6.xs4all.nl , but i don't get full line speed with it like with eweka. Anyone knows of another nice ipv6 free news server?

xs4all is an ISP and not an news-provider, so the *free* access to newszilla6 is limited to 50 kBps per thread.

Posted: **December 9th, 2008, 3:24 pm**

yeah.. and 3 threads for person. i know that

Edit:

Live update guys - eweka just started working again for me

freebin-auth.readnews.com
seems to work with 8 threads unlimited but it gives fake messages so you gonna need at least 10% par files if you try to download from there.

No problems here (see below).

Do a traceroute6, a ping6 and a telnet to port nntp to analyse your problem.

was wondering if anyone could get onto "news.ipv6.eweka.nl" today, about 6.30am Monday "Australian Time".

I wasn't able to ping the server and it was continually timing out the connection through SAB.

No problem here. See below.

Which IPv6 (tunnel) are you using? Sixxs, or teredo, or 6to4, or ...

Useful to post your traceroute6 / tracert6 in case of problems.

If anyone can help it would be great.
Thanks

i said something along the lines of how i was interested in ipv6 and it's present and future uses. And that testing it with free ipv6 news servers would be fun

Posted: **February 9th, 2009, 1:50 am**

reader.ipv6.xsnews.nl isn't working for me... i can get newszilla and eweka to work just fine but can't ever get that to work (i have a user/pass for it btw...)

Anyone else have luck w/ it, or is it just down?

Posted: **February 9th, 2009, 11:29 am**

Hi,

Yes, it's been down for months.

Posted: **February 9th, 2009, 1:00 pm**

test.news-service.com is up again now without ssl and on port 119.
Enjoy

Posted: **February 9th, 2009, 3:21 pm**

uh, i can't get test.news-service.com to work on 119

lemme try ssl 563

edit: not workin on 563 either....is this same ipv4 connection or is it now ipv6?

edit2: tried random user/pass on 119 and 563, not workin... tried 1119 as well, not working.... i'll try ipv6 now

edit3: ipv6 ain't workin for 119 either

(btw all these numbers i'm throwin out are the PORTS i'm trying to connect test.news-service.com to.... for those that are new to this.)

Posted: **February 9th, 2009, 3:44 pm**

There is a problem on you're side . I just did a telnet test.news-service.com 119 and this is what i got

201 Thanks for testing pre-alpha software, visit http://www.news-service.com NNT
