Howdy,

New to XPe and the forum. Could someone point me to the FAQ?

Thanks,

Gerry Green
 
KM,

Yep, already been through that FAQ (as well as most of the rest of the MSDN
on-line documentation).
Some other newsgroups in which I've participated had their own FAQs, and the
recommendation to newbies is to read the FAQ before posting any questions
which may have been answered before. So, I'm just trying to comply with
accepted newsgroup etiquette...

Thanks,

Gerry
 
Slobodan,

I'm trying the Google groups link right now. Thanks for the pointer.
I'm using my company's news server currently, but I'll try the MS server to
see if it's any better.

Thanks,

Gerry
 
KM,

You got it right: I *was* asking for a technical FAQ. Some groups have their
own technical FAQ.
Thanks for the pointers.

Regards,

Gerry
 
Slobodan,

I currently use Outlook Express for connecting to HP's news server. I just
tried adding an account in Outlook Express for news.microsoft.com. When I
tried to download the news groups, I got an error saying that it could not
connect to the server. Do you have to log into the MS server?

No, you do not.
 
I'm using news.microsoft.com and it is working without any passwords.
Perhaps some company firewall is preventing you from using it?
Try it from home.
