hi, all,
I want to read some newsgroup so emerged net-nntp/slrn.
Then I uncompressed "/usr/share/doc/slrn-0.9.9_p1/slrn.rc.bz2" and modify
username/hostname/realname, then saved as $HOME/.slrnrc.
After that, I run
wenpincui@Gentoo ~ $ slrn --create -h news.newsgroup.com.hk
slrn 0.9.9p1
Loading /usr/share/slrn/slang/slrn.sl
Reading startup file /home/wenpincui/.slrnrc.***Warning: Unable to find a unique fully-qualified host name.
slrn will not generate any Message-IDs.
Please note that the "hostname" setting does not affect this;
see the "slrn reference manual" for details.
Using newsrc file /home/wenpincui/.jnewsrc for server news.newsgroup.com.hk.
Connecting to host news.newsgroup.com.hk ...
Unable to make connection. Giving up.
Run-Time Error
slrn fatal error:
Failed to initialize server.
My question is:
Am I using slrn correctly?
If so, maybe it's resulted by damn firewall, I have to give up.
