  • Comment: Support multiple ports

    Hi there, does "ports" mean "multiple connections"? It's a little unclear for me to understand your feature request. UBH can use every port you want to. Standard port for NNTP is 119. You can change this in the servers table. But i guess what you mean ist "multiple connections" to download multiple articles in the same time. Regards jrimuc.

  • Field "subject" in table "metadata"to short

    In install.sql the field subject is defined as "Varchar(128) but in table headers and assemble subject and subject_part is defined as CHAR(255). When trying to insert a longer subject into metadata an db-error will occure.

  • Use prepared statements in ubhdb

    Hi, since ubhdb uses the database a lot, ot could improve the performance if ubhdb will use prepared statements instead of $dbh->do(). As far as i understood the mysql documenatation, ->do() is a shortcut for prepare() and execute(). Prepare is quite expensive from performance point of view. As the statements are the same during runtime (only parameter change) it could increase...

  • Comment: Add to documentation

    NNTPPORT is a version 2.x concept. In version 3.x, see the column 'port' in the table 'servers' (eg, 1_install.sql and also 2_servers.sql.

  • Comment: Support multiple ports

    Just run 8 simultaneous instances of ubh. Really - it works (on purpose)! It was designed/implemented to support this.

  • Comment: Proper filenames

    See documentation for the "ubh" main program, in particular the documentation for the -C option. "ubh" will always perform certain mandatory character substitutions. For example, consider the situation where some bad person embedded the filename "/vmlinuz" as the binary's filename. "ubh" is trying to protect you from things like this.

  • Proper filenames

    I notice that ubh (as well as 'brag' under Linux) often name the files in a strange way, looking like some sort of hash. When I download with 'klibido' it does not and the names are, I believe, as intended. I hope you could have ubh name them as klibido does since it will keep files within a group together when sorted.

  • Support multiple ports

    My Usenet server lets me use 8 ports for download. Other programs allow me to specify this but ubh does not and is a major detraction for ubh. It would be nice to add this ability.
