Comment 1 Milosz Marian Hulboj 2008-11-04 21:11:30 UTC

The same error after upgrading to Interpid Ibex (64-bit).
News server: news.motzarella.org
Version: 0.99.01 (KDE 4.1.2)

Comment 2 Jan Torben Heuer 2008-11-14 11:16:39 UTC

same for me here. Works with GMANE (I think because there is no atuh necessary...). But for my local ISP's news server it does not.

Knode Version 0.99.01 form ubuntu ibex

i try to debug from my nntp server and i can see that the username is not send to the server.

Comment 4 Olivier Trichet 2008-12-06 15:04:13 UTC

Ok, I reproduce the issue on news.motzarella.org. The server never asks for authentication (code 480), so none is sent.

I will commit something later that also try an authentication at the beginning of the nntp session if a username/password is supplied.

Thank for the infos.

SVN commit 893724 by otrichet:

Try to login just after the connection to the server. Some servers do not give access to some groups otherwise.
