[news.software.nntp] clarification of rrn problem

hanson@linac.fnal.gov (Steve Hanson) (07/31/90)

I posted a note yesterday asking for help with a connect problem with
nntp and rrn.  Several people mailed me replies, most of which suggested
things I had already tried.  After some more experimentation today,
I have discovered that the problem is more limited than I thought.
The nntp server machine we are using is running SUNOS 4.0.3.  My
problem appears to be that client machines running 4.1 SUNOS are always
told that they do not have permission to use the host machine, but
systems running earlier OS releases cann connect fine.  Has anyone
had this problem?  I'd appreciate any help.
