Why GNUS can't connect in XEmacs 21.5.24?
Hi,
I'm trying on my Cygwin compiled XEmacs 21.5.24 (MULE enabled)
to M-x gnus
Before that I've taken my "known to work"
.authinfo
.gnus
.signature
files from my Debian box and put them in my Cygwin's ~ directory.
I have also checked my Usenet connection:
$ nc news.individual.net 119
200 The server welcomes d-academic.ibun.edu.tr (194.27.149.174).
Authorization r
equired for reading and posting.
So, basically everything seems to be in place. XEmacs can connect to
Internet, e.g. w3
works fine. However when I M-x gnus it waits a little bit and then says:
Unable to open nntp:news, go offline (y or n)
Am I doing something wrong? I'd really appreciate some help.
Here's my .authinfo:
machine news.individual.net login sevinc password XXXXX
and .gnus:
(setq gnus-posting-styles
'((".*"
(name "Emre Sevinc")
(address "emres(a)bilgi.edu.tr")
(organization "Istanbul Bilgi University")
(signature-file "~/.signature"))))
;(setq message-default-headers
; (with-temp-buffer
; (insert "Face: ")
; (insert (gnus-face-from-file "~/pics/emre-face.jpg"))
; (buffer-string)))
