In the past, faqs.org has converted the news: and newsgroup references into the proper URL for the news/nntp protocol. That was useful if you had a previously configured news site. Most people did not... Now the HTML pages have the newsgroup names converted into Google hyperlinks. This allows you to read the newsgroups directly and you do not need to have a preconfigured news server. This is a recent addition at faqs.org. Please let us know what you think about it.

The HTML pages have the newsgroup names converted into hyperlinks. This allows you to read the newsgroups directly if you have access to a news server that carries the group. Simply because they are listed DOES NOT allow you to read news directly from the Web, nor do they give you access to groups that you would not have otherwise had access to.

If you are unable to access a newsgroup that you want using your ISP's newsfeed, the best thing you can do is write to your news or system administrator and request that the groups you want be added locally. If the group is available to them from their "upstream" site, they will most likely do this for you after only one request. You may need to nag occasionally, though. For many netizens, the news admin's username will be "news", and their domain the same as your own.

When you follow news links such as news:alt.invest, in MoneyWeb, you need access to a local news (NNTP) server. If you're getting error messages such as "cannot talk" or "cannot locate host," you probably don't have your news server configured properly in your browser options. Check your browser's help file or ask your internet service provider or systems administrator.

The newsgroups are the main way that the Co-op Office passes on important notices to the students. During interviews, students should be reading them daily in order to keep track of events which may require a fast response. Sending individual e-mails to each student would quickly overwhelm the mail server.

Because I've allowed myself to be distracted this spring, and after getting a lot of work done on it right after I quit my blog, I haven't touched it in more than a month.

When you follow news links, such as news - clari.news.top, in Yahoo! UK & Ireland, you will need access to a local news server (i.e. NNTP server). If you are getting error messages like "cannot talk" or "cannot locate host" you probably do not have your news server set properly in your WWW browser configuration. Please see your browser documentation on how to set this option.

Since IGN displays HTML pages as opposed to traditional text, you only need to rely on your browser to read Unicode HTML to be able to read the non-English FAQs on IGN. Our staff coverts non-English submissions into Unicode HTML so your browser does all the work. Each web browser usually (not always) has the ability to load a variety of languages from its options. On Internet Explorer, the option is under View --> Encoding --> Language.

Of course not! Only those that you feel might be necessary to give you an insight or background into OA. Also, if you have a gripe about something in OA, maybe how come we have AI but not FTL, or Wormholes but not Psionics, you may want to glance through the following list, because often we have already answered that very question. FAQs page - Introduction to OA - Explaining the Setting - generic questions and answers about the Orion's Arm Universe and the OA setting in general.

Post to the Pocket DivX Forums and someone will come to your rescue. The Pocket DivX Player is an ongoing development project, so you should expect to experience some issues. The developers would LOVE to hear your feedback so they can make the Pocket DivX Player better.

Yes. You might like to check out comp.dcom.lans.ethernet, comp.dcom.cabling and comp.protocols.tcp-ip for a start. Many of the people who know Ethernet bridges inside out, for example, don't read comp.sys.acorn.networking. If you're having trouble connecting to the Internet that may be specific to your ISP, look to see if they have local support groups first. Of course, the other comp.sys.acorn.* newsgroups are the place to go for Acorn discussion that isn't necessarily networking-related.

Yes. ITS provides a web interface to the UQ newsgroups via my.UQ. Instructions for using this service are available here. You can also read newsgroups with the news readers "nn" and "tin", and the mail program "pine" on koala.uq.edu.au.

Whoa! This application has many facets, but replacing your news reader (eg. Outlook Express) is not one of them. Neither do we want to create yet another bank of raw information on this site. We are trying to unify (not fragment) and refine the enormous weath of knowledge that exists already and is growing by the day.

The most common cause of not being able to post is because your news software's return address doesn't match your "main" email address (the one you entered when you signed up for Terra). The addresses need to match so we can replace your identifying information in the message's headers (such as your real name, email, organization, etc.) with your Terra name and email address. This allows you to interact with the Terran community "in character" without revealing personal information.

Note: We can't help you if you do not include your UCI ID#, your name, your contact information (email and phone#), and the reason you need assistance. Students are also asked to go to the Chemistry Undergraduate Program Office website for pertinent information BEFORE contacting the office.

Some FAQs fall under multiple categories, and so are listed once under each category. Right now, our FAQ system is still being reorganized for better efficiency and ease of navigation. We are planning on moving the various categories to their own separate pages instead of having all FAQs on one page as it is now. Having redundant FAQs assures that, once the categories are separated, you will be able to find your question easily and intuitively in every category that the FAQ pertains to.

Some journals (both online and printed) which relate to complexity and self-organisation are: This FAQ has been compiled and is maintained by Chris Lucas of the CALResCo Group. Comments, suggestions, requests for additions and particularly criticisms and corrections are warmly welcomed. Please feel free to EMail me at CALResCo or post relevant messages to the Usenet newsgroup comp.theory.self-org-sys for discussion.

Usenet is a collection of newsgroups. Newsgroups are discussion forums. Often Usenet refers only to the "Big Eight" hierarchies: comp, humanities, misc, news, rec, sci, soc, and talk. While k12.ed.math is a newsgroup in the k12 hierarchy, it still operates by the usual Usenet conventions and is transported through the same network systems. So, for all practical purposes, it is part of Usenet. A newsgroup is not a mailing list or a listserve.

Why can't I see any Dartmouth Web pages? I'm connecting from my local Internet Service Provider (ISP) and all the other sites work fine!

Not unless you give them your password. Visto supports case-sensitive passwords of up to 64 characters, including numerals and punctuation. By changing your password often, and keeping it securely hidden from anyone else, you can ensure that no one, not even the president of Visto, will be able to read one byte of your file information when you transmit using SSL. Visto is tough on security.

All who want to avoid the risk of prolonged unnecessary suffering at the end of life and the risk of being dragged into prolonged litigation as their rights, their dignity, their financial resources, and their emotions are drained.

Keep in mind that outside of hospice and palliative care centers, many health professionals may not be familiar with certain critical information; some estate attorneys have limited experience with end-of-life conflicts; and some religious leaders believe their interpretation of "what is right" in their perception of "God's eyes" should take precedence over individual autonomy.
