After the text of the first article is transferred to VMS, the connection seems to die. It appears that Ultrix is waiting for a response (perhaps the 235 message). Below is the Ultrix nntpxmit debug log (SUNSET is the VMS node name): 200 sunset VMS NNTP server version 5.8 ready at Fri Sep 29 16:39:59 1989 (posting ok). >>> IHAVE <24@venice.SEDD.TRW.COM> 335 send article to be transferred.

Any help on this matter would be appreciated. This is the first major article I have ever posted on NEWS. Lance Gay TRW, Redondo Beach, CA Internet: gay@venice.sedd.trw.com
