Could somebody tell me how to post using nntp. The reason I need to know is that I just found out that when I post news, my message does not leave my system. I have no trouble reading news, but the only way I can post right now is by sending mail to berkeley, which seems awkward to me. Also, what are the names of some of the nntp news-readers? I have looked around, but have not found any on my system. I have figured out how to read news with nnpt, but I don't know how to post. Any help would be appreciated. <boB< -- Where's the KA-BOOM? | Robert Ferguson There was supposed to be an enormous, | rferguso@ecn.purdue.edu (or) Earth-shattering KA-BOOM! -- Marvin Martian | rferguso@gn.ecn.purdue.edu r-znvy-zr-vs-lbh-pna-ernq-guvf-naq-lbh-ner-n-grrantr-zhgnag-avawn-ghegyrf-sna

I posted this last week, but something is still wrong with my postnews, and it didn't leave my machine again, as usual. Normally I use rn, but I can use readnews and vnews. I could not find NN, Bnews or Cnews any- where on my machine. I guess I just keep posting like this. >Thanks to everyone who replied to my first post. The information was very >helpful. I told one of the sys admins about the trouble I was having with >postnews, and he seems to have fixed it. (Yeah!) So I guess I don't need >to learn how to post with NNTP -- sounds to difficult.
