$nntp
= Net::NNTP->new([host
[, options
]])
Constructor. Creates a new Net::NNTP object. Arguments are:
- host
The name of the remote host to which an NNTP connection is required. If
not specified, the constructor checks the environment variables NNTPSERVER
and NEWSHOST, in that order, then Net::Config. Defaults to news
if
nothing is found.
- options
Options, passed as key/value pairs. Possible options are:
Timeout
Maximum time, in seconds, to wait for a response from the
NNTP server. Default is 120 seconds. A value of 0
causes all I/O
operations to block.
Debug
Enables printing of debugging information to STDERR.
