[news.software.nntp] Unexpected response code ... ?

alan@essex.ac.uk (Alan M Stanier) (06/26/91)

I am currently setting up a second news server at this site, the intention
being that users may choose their news host by setting the environment
variable NNTPSERVER. However, while news on the new server is being processed
OK, it cannot be remotely read because of an nntp problem.

Whenever I try to read news from the host sersun1, I get the response

Unexpected response code from sersun1 news server: 0

Does anyone have any idea what I have done wrong? I have checked protections,
etc, and everything looks the same on each implementation.
