I have just installed sn on a Linux system where I have a shell login account. Since I don't have root access I am runing the snntpd daemon using couriertcpd and it's listening on port 50119. It all seems to work OK, I have set up some local test groups and I can post to them remotely using tin via NNTP, excellent and simple to set up. However there is one oddity, when I connect with tin it says "server requires authentication" and makes me enter a user name and password. It works whatever I enter so it isn't really asking for authentication, is there any way to stop it asking this? -- Chris Green ([email protected]) Home: [email protected] Work: [email protected] WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/
