How please do others obtain this newsgroup? I have been using
Agent as a newsreader on my current server but I am changing servers and the new one tells me they do not have a news group service. I have been advised to try http://news-reader.org but when I do, and find my way through to this group I get : 'There is no recent messages in this group'. Is there a direct source somewhere to which I could go? __________________________________________________ ____________ Keith Sayers, Canberra, Australia Mail : 6 Clambe Place, CHARNWOOD, ACT 2615 http://www.pcug.org.au/~kmsayers -------------------------------------------------------------- |

APN -- http://www.forteinc.com/apn/index.php I have been using Agent as a newsreader on my current server but I am changing servers and the new one tells me they do not have a news group service.

Is there a direct source somewhere to which I could go? You can find it on nntp.aioe.org for free, but checking there I see they have 68 posts for the period from 27 December whereas I have around 230 posts for the same period -- so their completeness does not look good. I guess you pay for what you get. If you want a *good* news service and your new ISP does not have one, you may get better results with a pay news server. If you want text groups only, some people say news.individual.net (http://news.individual.net) is good and only €10 per year. I don't use it so I can't comment on it. -- Cheers, Ralph |

I use them and can recommend them. 10 Euro is about AUD$ 17, per *year*. Well worth the money. |

Should I be able to change settings somehow to achieve that? My careful poking around has not yet shown me how.
