FWIW, the reasons I use the news.cis.dfn.de server is because of dropped
posts and slow/poor propogation with the news.swcp server - those
problems persist in other ngs I subscribe to as well on swcp.news.


Old habits die hard, I suppose; and there is that thing about old dogs,
too... g

Nice TR, BTW. And kudos to klaus and the whole rsam modstaff.


Thanks, Bob.

I've given it some thought, and I think that I'm no longer going to
regularly check rsa. So, yeah, Klaus *and* modstaff: Thanks!

cheers,
john

I stopped reading my ISP's newsfeed because it seemed to be down
frequently and dumped old posts sooner than the German feed. Husband uses
the ISP's feed. Yesterday morning he asked me to send a message to them
asking when their feed would be up again -- it had been down since at
least midnight. Later in the day I got back a message saying that I
couldn't read news via NNTP, I had to log in to shell.(isp).com and read
news there. Coincidentally, their feed was back up again.

I sent back email asking how long it's been that way. This morning they
replied that it has NEVER been possible to read news via NNTP in the seven
years that they've been operational. Meanwhile, of course, I can read
their newsfeed with four different newsreaders, all of which assume that
they're using NNTP.

The only "help" person I've ever found there who knew his ass from his hat
is the owner. Since everything seems to be working, I'm reluctant to
bother him with this interesting little non-problem -- last year he worked
over the weekend to get the feed up and running again just for us.

"No, I'm sorry, gravity doesn't work here..." sigh

Nice TR, BTW. And kudos to klaus and the whole rsam modstaff.


Big fat ones!

Cheers, Bev

Hmmm. showed up everywhere else?? Maybe try another post?


One of my replies did make it here. Maybe swcp is just flaky...

Or are you
done skiing for the summer.


Not if my (other g) German partner-in-crime has anything to say about
it. We're shooting for the Indian Peaks area the weekend of Aug 8th.

Have fun on the boat, and Timps as well...

I promise photos if we go (Claudius will bug the heck out of me if I don't
do them: he likes to show off for folks back home in Freiburg...).

cheers,
john
