[QUOTE=rdhw]For reference:
Almost all the publicly-known NTL news server addresses (e.g.
news.cable.ntlworld.com,
news.ntlworld.com,
text.news.ntlworld.com) are all now identical aliases of
news.ntli.net, which resolves to eight possible IP addresses on a round-robin basis:
newscache.cable.ntlworld.com internet address = 80.1.224.5
newscache.cable.ntlworld.com internet address = 80.1.224.4
but I have no idea whether these news servers are actually working.
Thanks for the information! I changed to news.ntli.net and the service is now working fine.....mind you, I said that when i changed to newscache.cable which, by the way are not working at all!
