pan can't connect to server

| I can't get pan to connect to news server. Re-installing didn't solve
problem. I'm using a new etch system.
I have compared the configuration of a working SuSE system and found no
differences.
Any ideas. Bob

This is all I can show you, it doesn't do much. I think the lack of
"newsgroups.ynm" is because it can't connect.
Wed Dec 5 10:29:43 2007 - Pan 0.119 started
Wed Dec 5 10:29:43 2007 - Error opening file
"/home/bobh/.pan2/newsgroups.ynm"
No such file or directory
Wed Dec 5 10:29:43 2007 - Loaded data backend in 0.0 seconds
Thanks, Bob

Here the file is empty
cannabis:/home/repo# cat /home/repo/.pan2/newsgroups.ynm
# Permissions: y means posting ok; n means posting not okay; m means
#moderated.
# Since almost all groups allow posting, Pan assumes that as the default.
# Only moderated or no-posting groups are listed here.
cannabis:/home/repo#
Perhaps you can create it ?

You have opened a new line of inquiry. I'm not sure I understand it.
The subject installation has one file named - newsgroups - and has - xov
extension.
My SuSE box has 3 files -.dsc .ynm .xov
My problem is that pan does not connect to server and therefore doesn't
create the correct newsgroups files.
I need some good documentation for pan. Thanks, Bob

Now I really am confused!!?? Started pan a few moments ago and it worked!
I am using it to write this PS, I hope it gets to rhe server. Sorry for
the trouble, I wish that I had found something profound. Thanks, Bob

Can you connect to a different server, like aioe for example?
