I know from nothing about networks. Mainly what I want to do is read
and reply to E-mail; though I might want to run PSpice at some point
in time.

I've occasionally wished that there were a Usenet (NNTP) reader that
would automatically synchronize across multiple computers. AFAIK,
though, no such program exists, unfortunately.

Indeed!

Assuming I understand the question !!!!!!!

Yup, can be done., Just a server installed on the main machine that will
respond to the NNTP port and redirect in/out to local and remote
machines from a list of IP addresses.

No modes needed in any client software. Just a server operating on the
machine that has the actual connect to the NNTP..

I think there is more to it than that

Might be able to Ggogle for "NNTP proxy". It will not preserve the
state metadata from multiple newsreaders on multiple machines, though.
