Package: trn4 Version: 4.0-test76-15 trn4 has some kind of support for AUTHINFO GENERIC but it doesn't implement the protocol as described in the original specification: http://ftp.nada.kth.se/pub/home/assar/nntp-hacks/GENERIC.FAQ
Specifically, it requires the authentication command and arguments to be configured in ~/.trn/access rather than getting it from the NNTPAUTH variable. This means that trn4 needs configuring separately from other newsreaders. It's particularly inconvenient in the case where the authentication setup (the NNTPAUTH value) varies (for example, between different users on the same system).
