Not sure. After "telnet news-server 119" to connect to it, you can do
HELP to get an overview. The idea is that you enter a group with
"GROUP foo.bar". This tells you about the article numbers in that
group. Then you can request overview data with "XOVER 1-100" (you
will need to adjust the numbers based on the ones returned group
GROUP). I forget which command you need for showing an article, but
HELP will tell you.
