Hi Fellows,

Do you have at this FreeBSD wonderland a news agent comparable with
Windows Forte's Agent?

I seem to have trouble with "tin". My remote news server asks for a
user name and password. "tin" only takes a password and is probably
using my login name automatically (which is inappropriate).

Thanks, Enoch.
