Subject: That darned firewall..
Date: 26 May 1999 20:23:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ksogj7vgf6.fsf@telelogic.se> (raw)

Well ok, the sysadm has closed the firewalls nntp port, so no I have
to use ssh to ssh to a machine outside the firewall and start a telnet
there..

but.. but.. I can use the firewalls http-proxy by pretending I am
opening a secure connection to the newsserver. The question only
is.. how do I do this with the properties of the group..

What I need to do is:
	telnet firewallmachine
	CONNECT news.server.com:nntp HTTP/1.0
and leave the rest to gnus.. any hints.. 

Can the telnet method do this for me or?

	/Andy

p.s. Gauntlet firewall.
