I dial in with KPPP Marcia, and when I have a connection to my ISP
running...I use other programs . sometimes when I trigger a line in
KNODE without being connected to the ISP it gives me the same
message...so no line in will cause it to do that ., my netnews server
does not require a login or password...perhaps yours does?
Do you have netnews set up in netscape navigator? can you get to it
from there?
Last night I set up SLRNPULL to snag newsgroups from the same server
and put them on a local /var/spool then read them with SLRN.
At the moment I have netnews all over the place <grin> all from the
KPPP connection. make a check to see if your server requires
authentication...?
luck
