A standard industry protocol for the inquiry, distribution, retrieval, and posting of news articles.
The Internet standard protocol for posting, distributing, and reading network news messages posted among newsgroups on the Internet. Messages are posted to NNTP servers and are accessed by NNTP clients (news readers).
The means by which Usenet traffic is distributed; an early form of push technology.
The Network News Transfer Protocol is developing into the standard on the internet. In doing so, NNTP is replacing the old News Protocol.
The Network News Transfer Protocol specifies the peer-to-peer interaction among news servers and the communication between a news server and a news client (or newsreader). Similar to HTTP for Web pages and the SMTP for mail, NNTP can work either for public group discussions on Usenet's new servers or for private discussions hosted on corporate news servers. See HTTP, SMTP.
In the Internet suite of protocols, the protocol used to post, distribute, and retrieve Usenet messages.
A standard on the Internet used to distribute news articles and query news servers.
This is the protocol that governs how messages are posted to, read from, and exchanged among Usenet-style conferencing systems. Such systems are managed by dedicated “NNTP servers,” and you will specify your own server in your Newsreader software's settings.
A protocol for reading messages posted in thousands of news groups on the Internet.
The open Internet standard for newsgroup discussions. Because Netscape Collabra uses NNTP, Communicator users can access Internet newsgroups and integrate them with Collabra discussion forums.
A common method by which articles over Usenet are transferred.
(NNTP) - How Usenet news getsf from here to there and back again.
A protocol for the distribution, retrieval and posting of Usenet articles through high-speed links available on the Internet.
An application protocol used in TCP/IP networks. Enables clients to read and post information to USENET newsgroups.
A protocol defined for distribution, inquiry, retrieval and posting of news articles.
A member of the TCP/IP suite of protocols, used to distribute network news messages to NNTP servers and clients, or news-readers, on the Internet. NNTP is designed so that news articles are stored on a server in a central database, and the user selects specific items to read. See also Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
An industry standard protocol for the distribution, inquiry, retrieval, and posting of news articles. There are many popular newsreader programs to help you sort through the wealth of data that usenet contains.
The protocol that defines communication methods between news servers and news clients.
The protocol used to distribute network news messages to NNTP servers and to NNTP clients (news readers) on the Internet. NNTP provides for the distribution, inquiry, retrieval, and posting of news articles by using a reliable stream-based transmission of news on the Internet. NNTP is designed so that news articles are stored on a server in a central database, thus users can select specific items to read. Indexing, cross-referencing, and expiration of aged messages are also provided. Defined in RFC 977.
A protocol for sending and receiving news messages over the Internet.
A protocol for efficiently delivering news and discussions across a large number of servers. Use of NNTP has been largely superceded by web-based news services and RSS.
A member of the TCP/IP suite of protocols used to distribute network news messages to NNTP servers and clients (newsreaders) on the Internet. NNTP is designed so that news articles are stored on a server in a central database, thus enabling a user to select specific items to read.

The Network News Transfer Protocol or NNTP is an Internet application protocol used primarily for reading and posting Usenet articles, as well as transferring news among news servers. Brian Kantor of the University of California, San Diego and Phil Lapsley of the University of California, Berkeley completed RFC 977, the specification for the Network News Transfer Protocol, in March 1986. Other contributors included Stan Barber from the Baylor College of Medicine and Erik Fair of Apple Computer.
