My usenet server will only allow connections from the pitt.edu domain...
While I'm at work I can't read news, from the FAQ I thought the following might get me around that problem:
  
 
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "firewall"      
            (nntp-address "unixs.cis.pitt.edu")      
            (nntp-open-server-function nntp-open-telnet)

            (nntp-telnet-passwd "XXXXXXX")      
            (nntp-telnet-parameters       ("telnet" "usenet.pitt.edu" "nntp"))))
 
However this only replies with:
 
        Loading gnus-group...done 
        Opening nntp server on firewall... 
        Denied server
 
I'm a relative elisp-virgin, how can I receive more debugging info, or did I just screw up the parameter list?
