Re: DNS lookup with Netscape 4.5, 4.51 and 4.6

[Stephan Engelke <engelke@math.uni-hamburg.de>]

Hi folks,

thank for the numerous responses on the my Netscape problems -- 
aparently my Netscape version "readded" a default name for a news
server.  I had to remove all news-specific configurations three times
before the relevant entries stayed empty.  I really thought that the
entry had been disabled - stupid me. Now Netscape works as expected.  
Thanks again.

I did that too - it's been very helpful.

So long -- Stephan
