For authentication, slrnpull uses a file authinfo /var/spool/slrnpull. I
tried user name as said earlier all the three variants only lvgandhi,
lvgandhi@md3 as necessary for vsnl access and also full email address.
Still I have problem. Am I correct if say that slrn uses .slrnrc only to
read after it is pulled by slrnpull. For slrnpull .slrnrc is of no use.
Kindly clarify.
