Eclipse news server (port 80) [message #183055] Tue, 05 December 2006 17:54 Go to next message

Greetings
The nntp server used to listen on ports 119 and 80
We use port 80 since our workplace firewall blocks everything else

Since earlier today We have been unable to use the newsgroup on that
port, it seems to be just a regular web server listening there now.

From an email I received not too long ago:

Is this a change in "policy" ?
