I have a problem with my newsserver, the first time I click to open a news
OE hangs for 30" and I get this message "NNTP server NNTP did not answer
after 30", retry or break?", I hit "break" then I click on the same news and
I can read it. The same problem arises after some minutes of inactivity on
OE. Summing up I often am forced to stay 30" waiting for OE restarting.
My provider says he is not able to reproduce the malfunction and that's
all...
I tried to search in the Windows registry with Regedit and I found this
interesting key:
HKCU\Identities\{ident.account}\software\microsoft \Internet Account
Manager\Accounts\{account number of my newsserver}\NNTP Timeout
being set to hex 1E (decimal 30), then I lowered it to hex 0A (decimal 10)
but nothing changed.
I also tried to trace the malfunction with Wireshark utility (I was able to
read line tracing when I worked) and at NNTP level I see something like
that:
time 23.95 Request group microsoft.public.it.windows.vista
time 26.21 TCP retransmission of the previous request
time 30.80 TCP retransmission of the previous request
time 39.99 TCP retransmission of the previous request
time 58.58 TCP retransmission of the previous request - but at this moment
the 30" timeout must alrealy have elapsed
time 67.60 response from newsserver (I can't know what it means)
time 67.60 request mode reader
time 67.78 response from newsserver (I can't know what it means)
time 67.78 request group microsoft.public.it.windows.vista
time 67.96 response from newsserver (I can't know what it means)
time 67.96 request article 150228
time 68.15 response carrying the text of the news I clicked

someone can help?
