ngPost

A frequently asked question we get from customers is if we have support for ngPost. At the time of writing, we don't officially support it, but it can be installed using a script a community member has written.

ngPost is a Command Line (or minimalist GUI) usenet poster for binaries developed in C++/QT designed to be as fast as possible and offer all the main features to post data easily and safely. Releases for Linux, Windows and MacOS are available.

Installation

Before installation, please consider reading the installer script. You can read it on the GitHub Repo. You can run the script by using the following command:

bash <(curl -sL "https://github.com/brettpetch/hosted-scripts/raw/master/ngpost.sh")

:::tip If something goes wrong during your install, please consider checking the logs and the output in your console. You may find them by running the following:

less -r +G "$HOME/.logs/ngpost.log"

These can be helpful in cases where you need to see the output from installation. :::

Troubleshooting

For most troubleshooting, please consider consulting the ngPost README.

Note: Due to lack of providing a desktop to the public, SBIO and Swizzin.net customers are not able to use the desktop version of the application. Only CLI will be accessible to the user.
