Mike,

There's an easier way, that lets you have multiple servers.

Top menu, chooser Communicator | Message Center - then right-click on your
current News server, and choose "Subscribe to Discussion Groups".  In the
popup window, bottom right, is an Add Server button.  You can add many
servers this way without wiping out the current one.

How do I setup netscape news so that when I pop it up, I can click
on the the lugnet news server and all the groups will pop up.  I
keep adding groups but I can't get it to save them between sessions.
I'm just trying to avoid jumping through the display.cgi portion
everytime I want to view the newsgroups.

I may be going out on a limb here in assuming that you mean Netscape
Communicator, but I'll do it anyway.

Assuming you mean Netscape communicator and you want to actually use
the news portion of Communicator without dealing with the web
interface, you need to configure Communicator to use lugnet.com as
your news server.  This page may not tell you everything you need to
know, but it's a start:

Note please that if you already have a new server setup in
Communicator this will replace it.
