Hi again, Figured it out. I had to set up stunnel as a daemon.
Under root I do the following: # stunnel -c -d 5432 -r secnews.netscape.com:563 Now under my own account I add the following to ~/.tin/newsrctable 127.0.0.1 .newsrc_ns ntetscape ns I run tin as follows: $ tin -ra -p 5432 -g ns Bingo! I can now access the secure NNTP server. Later, Steven On Tue, 16 Jul 2002, Steven Whatley wrote: > > I've posted this to tin.users but thought I'd ask here as well.
