Can anyone remind me how to specify a server on a port other than 119 to
(gnus-group-browse-foreign-server)?
I could't find anything in the docs, nor anything via google.
Thanks,

Not sure about (gnus-group-browse-foreign-server), but you can set
something like the following in gnus-select-method:
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nntp "news.gmane.org"
(nntp-address "news.gmane.org")
(nntp-port-number 10119)))

Thanks.
I added an entry to my secondary servers; that should allow me to browse
the server via the *Server* buffer after I restart.
