Description michal 2003-12-15 22:36:52 UTC 
Version:           0.7.6 (using KDE 3.1.93 (CVS >= 20031111), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 (PLD Linux) 
OS:          Linux

When I try to download newsgroups from an NNTP server I see two kinds of behavior.

1. KNode seems to download groups and then displays an error message saying it can't write the groups list. There is also a following message in session log:
knode: WARNING: unable to open /home/misiek/.kde/share/apps/knode/nntp.1/groups reason 5

Note that there is no such dir, but there is quite similar:
/home/misiek/.kde/share/apps/knode/nntp.-1

2. KNode fails immediatelly after trying to download list of groups with message:
Unable to connect:
Operation now in progress

I've tried to remove the account and create it again and I always see one of the above behviors.

Regards

Don't save accounts before they have a valid id.
