Hi, Well I'm trying to get News going. I'm used to Agent under windows, and I have used it under Wabi with some minor drawbacks. I would like to get Knews or Xrn going, they connect but return either ---error 502, authentication failed or --- failed to get list I'm sure this is the authentication problem. Is there a way around this? I have seen mention of a perl module that will log on to newsserver requiring authentication. Anyone know anything about this? Is a perl script available that I can use to log on then , launch Knews? I don't want to go back to wabi and agent, it requires that Xkeyboard is disabled, and it makes the backspace key useless in X. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
