If you're trying to use it with KA9Q you shouldn't be using !ArcWebTCP as
that only works with Acorn TCP/IP (or FreeNet :-)). You need to get a copy
of one of the other fetchers from ftp.demon.co.uk in /pub/archimedes/www.

Type 'aftp mnhepw.hep.umn.edu' to get connected, and then change to the
right directory by typing 'cd /pub/allan' and then 'get nbase0547dev.spk'
to get the file.

That file isn't there any more though, as the current version is nbase054c.

Alter the 'nntp addserver' line in your config, and change the retry
time to something more sensible (the value is in seconds).
