Config file for Knode

Sun Nov 29, 2009 10:38 am
I am looking for the configuration file of Knode where I can manually specify the identity information for an NNTP account I created. The problem is that every time I try to change any info through the GUI, KNode and the entire Kontact suite crash. I even reported a bug, but since I see nothing of the kind around any forums I checked, and the bug seems unconfirmed, I suspect it might be something in my setup. This is the link https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215879

Either way, I looked into the config files I found, but nothing there suggests any identity options. Perhaps it is in another file, which I cannot locate, so I would greatly appreciate any help with that.

I am using KDE 4.3.3 with OpenSUSE 11.2.

Thanks in advance for any help!

The main config file is knoderc, but the app might also be using the emailidentities file
Both in the local KDE directory, e.g. $HOME/.kde/ or $HOME/.kde4
(see kde4-config --prefix)

Re: Config file for Knode  Topic is solved

Thanks for your reply! In fact, it is in neither of these files, but I was able to locate the one. It's in the kde4 directory, then apps, then knode, then there is an nntp.1 directory, and I guess knode creates one such directory for every nntp account. Inside it there is an info file, which has the configuration I was looking for.

Too bad that for some reason knode crashes if I try to edit that information from the GUI...
