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.
I suspect one could move the Agent database to your laptop when you
travel, then move it back when you come home.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
