Being foolhardy, I'm going to try this again . . . I cannot figure out how to get inews to let me post through my nntpserver. I have no problem reading articles, but posting yields a "no valid newsgroups" error from inews. It seems to be a problem in the control newsgroup, but i haven't been able to find any instructions in the faqs or howtos.
What I am *not* trying to do is be a newshost at all; the university has a not-to-horrible server. Also, i've found that i can post from netscape on my box through this server, but i'd really like to switch over to strn; at the moment, i have to telnet to one of the university machines to run trn. rick -- These opinions will not be those of ISU until it pays my retainer. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
