Once you setup a news server in pan, you can edit the servers.xml file and point the newsrc entry for that server anywhere you want. Here, I simply rename the files to reflect the news server name (so for example, newsrc.gmane, for the gmane.org list2news server I use to get my mailing lists including this one as newsgroups), but you can edit the whole path and point it where you want, if necessary. So just point it at ~/.newsrc, and assuming you have only the one server, you should be fine. (Unfortunately, the newsrc format appears to be single-server only, so pan uses multiple files for multiple servers. Don't try to point more than one server at the same file or you WILL have issues! =8^0 An exception would be servers such as the European and USian servers that some NSPs run, that coordinate their available groups and article sequence numbering, in which case using the same newsrc for all article-sequence-number coordinated servers should be just fine.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
