After having problems upgrading from FC1 to FC2, I decided to do a fresh install. Of course, I kept my /home partition, and archived /etc. But I forgot about the program I used to fetch the news. In fact, I forget what program it was (I had a shell script called getnews, but I forget what program it invoked). I do have the output from the program, since it gets mailed to me. Does anyone recognise this output: Attempting to connect to news.demon.co.uk Using Port 119 Official host name: news.news.demon.net Alias news.demon.co.uk Address: 158.152.254.254 Connected to news.news.demon.net 200 news.demon.co.uk InterNetNews NNRP server INN 2.4.0 (20020917 CVS prerelease) ready (posting ok).
