Hi.
I know the details are correct, I am on news demon and using newsleecher, at home it connects fine but here in student accommodation it does not connect on any ports, SSL or normal, any ideas? Any way around it?
Thanks
Will.

Hmm.. Do a traceroute to the newsdemon server you're trying to connect to. If you don't know how, go into command prompt (start>run>cmd) and type tracert serveraddress. Ping it too and see if you get a response.
On the tracert see if it reaches the destination, or post it here and i'll look at it. Also, does NewsLeecher have any sort of log? If there is, check it

This is what I get:
Okay, you're route is fine and it connects to the destination. When your in NewsLeecher, click the News :: Log tab, tell me what it says there when you try to connect. Try all these ports:
europe.newsdemon.com port(s): 119, 443, 8080
europe-ssl.newsdemon.com * (THIS IS 256-BIT ENCRYPTED) port(s): 443, 563, and 8080
If none of those work try news.newsdemon.com on port 80 because if they are blocking most ports then that will still work, no one blocks port 80 (its used for web traffic). If all that fails my guess is its NewsLeecher, in which case try Alt.Binz (http://altbinz.net). If you have a firewall disable it and try again.

10/2/2008 3:43:29 PM Unable to connect / authenticate server: europe-ssl.newsdemon.com @ europe-ssl.newsdemon.com (Unable to connect (Error: 10060 - "Connection timed out").).
europe-ssl.newsdemon.com
Thats what I get.
With news.newsdemon.com on port 80 all that happens is:
10/2/2008 3:44:58 PM Unable to authenticate at server: news.newsdemon.com (502 news.newsdemon.com: Access denied to your node - [email protected]).
Email NewsDemon with the error message you had (access denied to node) and see what they say, think its their end. Also have tried the normal europe server? the non ssl one. If SSL dont work on your PC try installing openssl from http://www.shininglightpro.com/produ...32OpenSSL.html
