[CentOS] This isn't supposed to be difficult (how to nntp post to the Gmane Pan user group)
I realize this is (mostly) off topic, but I'm befuddled as to *how* one can post to the Gmane Pan Users' group (gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user) using any nntp USENET client (e.g., Pan, on Centos). I'm already subscribed (by having sent an email to pan-users at nongnu.org); but I just want that USENET group to work like *this* USENET group, where I can post using a server:port login:password combination such as we use here: Server: news.gmane.org Port: 119 Login: blank Password: blank User: Rock I've looked here (http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.pan.user) and if the answer is there, I don't see it (maybe I missed it?). My basic question is so simply I'm shocked I'm having to ask it (of the wrong group even) ... which is ... the following: Q: How on earth is one supposed to post to the Gmane Pan users using an nntp client (which requires a server name and port & login/password)?

You post per nntp the first time gmane sends you a email per smtp you reply to that email you wait some time ... something like that, but as said, when you have problems with gmane, ask gmane. -- Markus
