    What version are you running ? We are running 4.2 and it seems to
  work just fine if you have the Eunice site call the Unix site.

      Again what version ? Its all important in Eunice. I don't think
 4.1 worked so well.

    I would be interested in hearing if anyone has gotten the news, inews
    software to work also. I'm in the process of trying it, but it ain't
    going so well. (Just for info, I do have it working on a real Unix
    system)
