I haven't launched nnrpd by a systemd script.
I have set in inn.conf -S flag in nnrpdflags: directive.

tlscafile: /etc/news/ssl/chain.pem
tlscertfile: /etc/news/ssl/cert.pem
tlskeyfile: /etc/news/ssl/privkey.pem
tlsprotocols: [ TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3 ]

Than, as you see above, i have copied copied letsencryppt certificates
in /etc/news/ssl to make certificates and key owned by news user.

By the way i run Ubuntu22.04.
I've stopped implementing nnrpd for now.
I've decided to start with at least one peer first, understand all the
other config files well and ultimately adopt nnrpd and tls.

Hi Gabx,

I haven't launched nnrpd by a systemd script.
I have set in inn.conf -S flag in nnrpdflags: directive.

nnrpdflags
When nnrpd(8) is spawned from innd(8), these flags are passed
as arguments to the nnrpd process.

innd usually listens on port 119 so it spawns nnrpd on the same port.
It is meant for unencrypted reader connections. You should not use "-S"
for nnrpdflags.

You need running nnrpd as a daemon on port 563. See the last point in CHECKLIST:
https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/inn/docs/checklist.html

And naturally more details in the "TLS Support" section of nnrpd manual
page:

Yes you are right,
i noticed it:

openssl s_client news.tcpreset.net:119
Connecting to 94.130.76.71
CONNECTED(00000003)
depth=2 C=US, O=Internet Security Research Group, CN=ISRG Root X1 .....................................

I don't want this on port 119, thanks.
