Thread: NewsServer down ?

Hi.

There should exist a news-server at:
news://news.postgresql.org/
but I can't connect to it.
It seems does it does not exist.
Even the name can't get resolved.

Is there a new one out there or isn't there one now ?

Cu,
Andreas


PS:
Btw, it got the news-servr from
http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/
...
The mailing lists are also available at the PostgreSQL <news server>.
However, in order to post to a list, you must still subscribe to that list
(but it is possible to subscribe without receiving mail).
where <news server> is a link.

Just connected to it from here ... is this still providing to be a problem
for you?

Ohhhh, NOW I start thinking. :-(
I think my corporation blocks all but http-traffic.
Sorry, just did not think.

Thanks anyway,
