Hi, Murali, You don't subscribe to a newsgroup such as comp.databases.oracle.server as you do to a mailing list. If your company has a news (NNTP) server, configure your browser to user it and type the URL news:comp.databases.oracle.server to read/post messages. Most companies use "news" or "snews" as the news server name. Try: telnet news 119 help quit to find out. Or ask your Help Desk. If your company does not have a news server, read Question 2 at http://groups.google.com/googlegroups/help.html. I use news.interbulletin.com currently. If you insist on using a public news server instead of a Web gateway, www.jammed.com/~newzbot/sorted-speed.html does a fairly good job on listing public servers, which come and go at their will. To use one of them, type the URL news://[the IP of the server]/comp.databases.oracle.server in your browser. News readers don't use these URLs.

I suggest you post your message to news:comp.databases.oracle.server (or http://news.interbulletin.com/cgi-bin/ibwrn/post/comp.databases.oracle.server if your company doesn't have a news server). Hopefully it will attract... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
