Ok
Recently it has been connecting but being VERY slow in doing so, at the end of
the day I dont mind waiting, but for some reason I am having a problem, which
I am sure has an easy answer , just i am getting frustrated with it
When I type fetchnews -vv as root i get
[root@localhost phil]# fetchnews -fvvv
1.9.24.rel: verbosity level is 3
Trying to connect to news.virgin.net:nntp ... failed.
WARNING: found no server with posting permission!
This is what syslog shows
Oct 21 23:03:23 localhost fetchnews[2748]: 1.9.24.rel: verbosity level is 3
Oct 21 23:03:23 localhost fetchnews[2748]: unable to open

The groupinfo file is 0bytes, i tried renaming it, deleting it, using the -f
option, and all it does is create a file with 0 bytes in it, my server is
returning my pings, can anyone offer any advice??
Not surew where the problem is, when using mandrake 8.2 and it hink the same
version of leafnode it worked flawlessly.
Thanks in advance
