Hi,
I was able to work with the LUGNET news server successfully a while ago. When
retring today with the same settings, it fails with "connection refused".
My environment is:
- Mozilla news reader V1.6
- Windows XP Pro SP1
- ZoneAlarm firewall on the system
- Behind a NAT router (DLINK router)
- Not behind any other proxy or firewall
My settings for the LUGNET news server are:
- Server: lugnet.com
- Port: 119
- No SSL
I recently became a lugnet member, but I do hope this does not have anything to
do with it.
I can work successfully with other news servers (e.g. using VPN into my
company). The Firewall does not show any suspicious log entries.
When I try to connect manually to port 119 of lugnet.com (using telnet), the
connection also gets refused after a while. I can ping lugnet.com, and the DNS
resolution also works ok.
Any help is much appreciated!
Andy
