I an using tin, and it won't recognize my news server.
My server tells me I need no username or password and
I know that it works fine using Free Agent and Outlook Express
I type 

$ tin -r news1.sympatico.ca

and that gets me;

Connection to news...
news: Unknown host

Anything I should look into?
