My ISP's remote newsserver can currently only be accessed from a specific machine on my local network. How do I configure gnus to first login to this other local machine and then to access the remote nntp from that machine? I've tried the both of the following: '(nntp "Globix" (nntp-address "delaware") ; machine on local network (nntp-end-of-line "\n") (nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-rlogin) (nntp-rlogin-parameters "telnet" "news.globix.net" "nntp") '(nntp "Globix" (nntp-address "delaware") ; machine on local network (nntp-end-of-line "\n") (nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-telnet) (nntp-telnet-parameters "telnet" "-8" "news.globix.net" "nntp") What am I doing wrong?
