I got ver 3.97 and installed it. I still can't seem to get it working
tho. I type "128.100.13.63 9000" in the address box, made sure it's on telnet,
and clicked on OK.  QVT returns the message "comm_open: unable to obtain IP
address for '128.100.13.63 9000'". How do you specify the port?

Thanks,
Owen Ching

Prehaps the best shareware NNTP newsreader for Windows is Trumpet Newsreader.
You can anonymous FTP it from: ftp.utas.edu.au:/pc/trumpet/wintrump.

How do you know that Winsock doesn't support DOS programs?  The spec
clearly talks about a DOS interface to TCP/IP.  It's just not completed
yet.

Subject: Trumpet newsreader problem

I am having a problem with my Trumpet newsreader for Windows. For some reason,
it absolutely refuses to recognise my IP address.  I've done everything I can
(Including stumping one of our local experts).  Since it won't recognise my IP
address, it can't find our name server, and therefore, no news server.  Is
there a solution to this?

BTW: I'm using the newest version. Thanks for any and all help!!

Subject: Re: NNTP News readers to replace Chameleon

I got Trumpet for Windows 1.0 REV A from CICA and it is much faster
which is nice :-). However, there are lots of newsgroups (like this
one :-) which do not show up (they do show up with Chameleon). Is this
because I'm using an eval copy, or is there something else going on???
