Again, you knoweth not of the FACTS !!!!!!! This server is a PRIVATE server located in Mountain View Ca. and is owned by Netscape and administrated by a Netscape manager (Markus). Things may have changed since I last spoke with Markus but that's it as far as I know for now. I suggest you read up on how news server software works. By way of preferences in the software, the sysnewsadmin can choose to accept/post "public/usenet" feed or not. The Secure News Server (secnews) is hosted on this box as well and does NOT accept usenet feed. Over-simplified explanation but will do for the moment. Please Kyle, get your facts in order. Bashing Netscape/Mozilla is one thing and is perfectly acceptable under certain conditions such as appending your "bashing" with useful feedback, suggestions, bug reports, feature enhancement requests, knowledgeable discussion, etc ......... The old saying "It's better to keep your mouth shut and let everyone think you're an idiot/fool than to open it and remove all the doubt" is quite apropos. -- Jay Garcia - Netscape Champion Novell MCNE-5/CNI-Networking Technologies-OSI UFAQ - http://www.UFAQ.org
