After exiting Pan, when I check the server connections in "edit news

That used to happen to me, too. I'd set it to 8, then Pan would just
set it back to 4. In fact, I complained about it here, then when
someone questioned whether Pan would really do that, I re-checked
my working Pan to see. This time, after I set the number of
connections up to 8, it stayed at 8. Rather embarassing.
I don't know what's going on there. As a wild guess, the
server is giving Pan information about what the max is, and
that information doesn't always correspond with what is
advertised for the server.
