Re: Good free Usenet servers?
It really isn't that hard..
Get a client, I'm not going to go over that here.. Use some google-fu and the search here.
Open said client, add server. Enter the details provided in one of the emails from the 'free host' I know they sent it..
And then beat yourself up for not even attempting to help yourself on google.. Then write down the date and reason for your self imposed black eye.
It's easier than setting up an pop/imap email account in Thunderbird.
Once your done with that, hope you took some good notes and come back and post this tutorial you speak of.

For IPv6:
Signup for IPv6: http://go6.net/
You will get a username and password, and a server to use, you OWN specific one.
Next, download the Gateway6 client, to create your tunnel for IPv6.
Then grab http://www.sabnzbd.org/ SABnzbd+, the only pure IPv6 compatiable NG grabber....don't believe, try connecting with other clients.
You must have IPv6 enabled and a tunnel created to use those NG servers...there's my answer, if you can't figure it out, well then more speed for me. IPv6 free servers are really great, just as could as the pay-for newsservers, minus the retention, but 100 days, well just grab new and hot stuff with it, after all that's what the tunnel is about so you can't be tracked, right :)
If you are successful in setting IPv6, the Turtle at the top of this page will flap it's wings.

Re: Good free Usenet servers?
The only truly free ones ATM are the IPv6 nntp servers that SonsOfLiberty mentioned.

I'm on Comcast and when I go to http://go6.net/ in Opera (9.64), it says I'm using IPv6.
If I go there in Firefox (3.0.9), it says I'm using IPv4... ditto at http://www.kame.net/
Note that this was before I installed the Gateway6 Client.
NewsBin Pro supports IPv6 in the current version.
