simple nntp

Hello all,

I have been trying to find the solution to my problem for a while and
have had little success. I want to host a private nntp server that is
accessable by any news client using the internet. I would like to manage
the server so that only specific people can read or post and I would
like to use SSL. I've never hosted any type of news server before. Are
there any websites that would be useful? Of course, any input is helpful.

Thank you!
