You need to get that cookie saved on your machine. So, with cookies at
least temporarily enabled (the control is over the request to save them
on your machine, not to retrieve them) go to the setup screen
(http://www.lugnet.com/news/post/setup/)and do the submit, with the
"save a cookie" checked.

That SHOULD do it. once it's saved you should be OK. I think.

I'm having troubles getting my account setup through the web interface.

I'm using Netscape 4.5 and I have set the cookie option to 'Accept only cookies
that get sent back to the originating server'.  However, I originally set up my
account with cookies disabled.  So now every time I post or reply I still get
the following message:

** Before doing anything else here, make sure that you have done the following:
**      1.Carefully and fully read the Terms of Use for this site.
**      2.Special note for 19 Oct 1998: Read the announcement about the web
interface change.
**      3.Go through the Setup procedure to request permission to post
messages.
** Continue

I then have to Identify myself and check the Terms of Use box before I can post
the message.  How do I get rid of these messages so I can post and reply
normally?

Thanks
