Adding a Newshosting server in GrabIt is a straightforward process. GrabIt makes it easy to connect to a Usenet provider by entering your server credentials and preferences directly into the application.
Steps to Add the Server:
-
Open GrabIt.
-
In the left panel, right-click on "My GrabIt" and select "Add Server."
-
Enter a name for the server (e.g., "Newshosting").
-
In the "Hostname" field, enter: news.newshosting.com
-
Enter your Newshosting username and password in the fields provided.
-
To use a secure connection, check the box for "Encrypted server connection (SSL)."
-
Set the port to 563 for SSL, or 119 for standard access.
-
Click "OK" to save the settings.
The server will now appear in your server list. You can adjust its priority or settings by right-clicking the server name.
