Just put rn (rrn) and xrn up here, and having a blast. Much better interface than the mail I've been reading for years. However, a few questions for the cognoscenti: (1) our default news server host doesn't supply a complete feed. Is it possible to define another server to pick up the other groups? Since it would be further away, I wouldn't want to use it except for those missing groups. (2) rn would fill in the From:, Reply-To:, and Organization: fields correctly when posting, but xrn persists in thinking my domain is berkeley.edu and leaves the Organization field blank. Now, I am running it on another machine by running rsh <machine with xrn> -display <this machine>:0, does that make any difference? Can't see how. Peter Scott (pjs@aristotle.jpl.nasa.gov)

You need to set up the XRN configuration options. Look in config.h. You can set the compile time define DOMAIN_NAME to your domain, and/or set the DOMAIN environment variable to your domain at run time. In a bit of non-orthogonality, you can set the compile time define ORG_NAME to your default organization name, and/or you can use the Xresource xrn.organization or the use command line option xrn -organization to set it at run time.
