It's a good bet that the only way it will work is if you are a member of

server.

No, news.peoplepc.com resolves to the earthlink servers. It will work
just fine.


Yes, read it again ... if he doesn't use EarthLink or peoplePC (peoplePC
_is_ a member network), he damn sure ain't logging onto earthlinks nntp
servers.
