Message-ID: <852@bacchus.esa.oz.au> Date: 5 Dec 90 06:21:30 GMT Reply-To: robi@bacchus.esa.oz (RoBeRt KaRp) Organization: Expert Solutions Australia Lines: 19 I am trying to install nntp (1.5.10) on an apollo DN3500. We are using the bsd environment. I have compiled up both the nntp server and xrn (6.13) to use as the client, both compile and install OK. However, when I run xrn, I get the following error message: Unexpected response code from bacchus news server: 503 Failed to reconnect to the NNTP server (handle_response), sleeping... Are there some config. points I may have missed, or any ideas at all ?
