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

A while back, the news server posrt was changed to 1119, because of some stupid
hacker program that attacked port 119. Change your port to 1119 and all should
work as before.
