Solution: was "Fix OE errors"

[Guest Rod]

Thanks to all,

finally nutted it out thanks to a fantastic forum

with a cynosure on Australian Broadband

http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum.cfm

 

 

snipped:

 

I believe Primus News server use Pipenetworks

as there upstream provider for newsgroups.

Unfortunately, Pipenetworks have recently decided

to turn off there news server with little or no notice

as they decided it is not worth maintaining newsgroups.

There is a thread on this over in the peering forum.

The net result is that your posts to the primus news

server are going nowhere but the Primus news server.

 

This will only be solved if Primus get a new upstream

provider but for now I don't belive there is anything you can do.

Glad to see you got to the bottom of it. Is this the NG Primus &/or

PipeNetworks no longer provides...?...

G'day PCR.

Thanks, yes I can access the newsgroup via Google,

but the system is archaic, and my Broadband usage shoots up

you have to reload every time you respond . Ouch!

 

I would like to engage "Tera News" free newsserver

at $3.95, but I have no idea how I send such a piddling amount

to the US without a credit card.

Well, I don't have a credit card, either! Is that $3.95 per month? Then,

send them a check for a year's worth! My fee for walking $3.95 to them

is $304.16-- if you can find no other solution! I think Terhune does it

for less!

Thanks or Good Luck,

There may be humor in this post, and,

Naturally, you will not sue,
