Does anyone know a good free news group service, without all the withheld name crap?
Thanks

Hi Remington

I am also interested in this and was hoping somebody with in depth knowledge would reply.

I don't think my ISP has a news server and my previous one did not have the alt.binaries.

FAQ 1.8 provides some guidlines but the free new server mentioned does not work for me.

Doing a search on Google for "Open News Server" came up with several links including

The server 64.154.60.75 works for me but you cannot post.

Probably have to pay for a quality service - presumably your business philosophy.

Hope we get some other posts on this suject.

Regards
