getlist question

[Froilan Mendoza]

Hello, 

I am trying to get feeds from a remote NNTP server. I have followed the
steps in INSTALL but got stuck in getlist:

getlist -h newsfeed.domain.com ap.* > active
Can't retrieve data, No such file or directory

I know that there are articles with the said string since I have another
Redhat box accessing the same news server and getting the articles fine.

Relatedly (I surmise), if I do a a startinnfeed:

bash-2.04$ startinnfeed 
Tue Sep 18 17:11:05 2001 innfeed: loading /usr/local/news/etc/innfeed.conf

... my log says it times out:
Sep 18 16:15:22 osage innfeed[1285]: newsfeed.domain.com final seconds 300

I can read the test groups that I have created no problem but I want to
"get" the articles from the remote NNTP server.

Many thanks
