Hi Just a word of caution, please use the information for your testing, sure, but any importing will need to be done via vB as the data you have is not compliant with GDPR.
Oh. Please expand on that, I don't understand. What is vB? Hi vB is an abbreviation of vBulliten (the forum software) ;)
Why is it not compliant? It is a public server and the messages were posted by people that knew the posts were going to be published. There are no read access controls.
Users have asked under GDPR for their information to be deleted, so in vB their signatures are emptied and all of their posts are set to 'Guest'. Since the gateway has run, these posts are on the nntp side and still contain that information they asked to be deleted....
You mean that we have to create the nntp server empty of messages, ignore all the existing messages? It is certainly easier to do.
Yes, that would be my suggestion, just the structure, get the gateway working to vB (or what ever forum software is going to be used going forward) and populate, this will also pull in the ones requested to be removed as 'Guest'. The ongoing challenge as I see it will be how to remove references and signatures on the nntp side, but changed on the forum side.... Then there are the Forum staff spam tools as well for canceling messages so they are deleted on the nntp side. -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) Tumbleweed 20190617 | GNOME Shell 3.32.2 | 5.1.7-1-default Intel DQ77MK MB | i5-3470S X4 @ 3.60 GHz | Intel Ivybridge HD 2500 up 1 day 3:34, 2 users, load average: 0.23, 0.35, 0.56 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner@opensuse.org
