Hi Steve, Maybe the VPN is accepting the connection but is not passing it through to the news groups. And, that could Be causing the host not found message. Just a thought.

I'm not getting any errors apart from host not found, and when I look at the log there is no entry at all for nntp for my pc in bermuda.

I don't think that msnews.microsoft.com allows for vpn access to the news groups.

All the clients in the main office (Scotland) have access no problem, but here in Bermuda I cannot access any over the vpn. I can access them if I drop the vpn which wouldn't be a problem apart from the fact that 2 particular newsgroups that I subscribe to are on my Scottish ISP's private server.
