Todd,
I was looking up Telnet in Windows XP (haven't used it before) and I
decided to try NNTP again - it worked.  I don't know what was going on
earlier, but I guess as long as it continues to work I'll just keep using
it.  Thanks for the quick response!

Paul,
Ok, cool....Glad it's not something more insidious like a low-level TCP packet
problem or something like that.

However, there is still an issue with xinetd acting flaky...there have been
three or four times today when the nntpd daemon stopped being forked, causing
new connection attempts to fail.  I've been restarting xinetd periodically,
and this has cleared the condition, but that's not a real solution...so I'm
still looking for clues.
