I am having issues getting private password protected groups working.
I have set my readers.conf file to the following :-
```
auth private {
auth: "ckpasswd -s"
}
access private {
users: "aaronngray"
newsgroups: "private.*"
}
```
but Thunderbird is complaining "login to server
nntp.climateemergence.global with username aaronngray failed."
The password is definitely correct in both cases, but I am unable to
authenticate.
I tried using htdbm -cbB /usr/local/news/db/passwords aaronngray ********
and :-
auth private {
auth: "ckpasswd -d /usr/local/news/db/passwords"
}
as well.
Hoping someone can point me in the right directions with this.
Aaron
