John,
Found the problem: a hidden file for aracnet-news. Removed that and
generated a list of newsgroups hosted at aioe.org.
Thanks very

I've not used slrn to access Usenet newsgroups for a while. The server
name in ~/.slrnrc is the defunct aracnet. Since I have no basis for
selecting a replacement server I am asking for recommendations for one to
