I have just created a tunnel to my local nntp provided through a remote host, by executing: ssh -L 9000:<news server>:119 <gateway> Could you try this please? (Obviously you need to substitute port 119 for 23), and actual hostnames for the placeholders. Once that is set up, you should be able to telnet to localhost port 9000 and see your news servers greeting. > I cannot telnet to localhost either or 127.0.0.1 and that would tend to > indicate that system is not allowing incoming connections which we know > is not possible as I can send and receive e-mail and browse the web. You mean, you receive email over the samme tunnel as you use to read news? I am not sure that I follow. -- Søren O. "Oh, bother" said the Borg, "we've assimilated Pooh".
