Hi all.

I'm a little fed up with having to run Outlook Express on all my clients for
News, Outlook just doesn't cut it either!

I want to write a server based app that will conect and sync, then write a
client that will connect to the central database.

Can anyone give me a starting point?

Cheers,
Tull.

First, you'll be using NNTP - Network News Transfer Protocol. Start
googling for NNTP and .NET (there's many free and commercial NNTP
libraries out there).

You should also familiarize yourself with the NNTP protocol
