Subject: [LIG] Problems in launching tin...
When I try to launch the newsreader *tin* this is the message I get. What
does it mean please?
>Can't get a (fully-qualified) domain-name!
>Try and save newsrc file again? (y/n): y
Likewise, I've been unable to launch the other newsreader SLRN. This is the
error message:
slrn 0.9.6.2 (Feb 7 2000 16:09:52)
>Reading startup file /usr/lib/slrn/slrn.rc.
>Reading startup file /home/fred/.slrnrc.You need to set the NNTPSERVER
>environment variable to your server name.
>Example (csh): setenv NNTPSERVER my.news.server
>slrn fatal error:
>Unable to select server/post object.
Which are the servers LUGers would recommend? Where do in I feed their
details? Thanks in advance, Frederick.
