Indeed, that server is defined in my .emacs and is not
editable. Here is what I have in the .emacs:
(setq nntp-ssl-program "/usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl s_client -quiet -ssl3
-connect %s:%p")
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.acm.uiuc.edu"))
(setq nntp-authinfo-user "reingold")
(setq nntp-authinfo-password "XXXXXXX")
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nntp "news.cs.illinois.edu"
(nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-ssl-stream)
(nntp-port-number 563)
(nntp-address "news.cs.illinois.edu")
(nntp-authinfo-user "reingold")
(nntp-authinfo-password "XXXXXXXX"))))
I think this is as per the manual, but it doesn't work for the
news.cs.illinois.edu server (the other is just fine). What do I do to fix it?
