![]() From: "maguosheng" Subject: cannot access MSnews.microsoft.com Date: Thursday, September 10, 2009 5:27 PM "N. Miller" ... On Wed, 26 Aug 2009 11:48:03 -0700, Zuke wrote: Yes. "this server requries me to logon" has been checked, with my windows live account name and password, adn "remember password" is checked. If I uncheck "this server requires me to login" I still get the same errors. When I try to open a spceific newsgroup, I get this error: Header download for the 'microsoft.public.windows.server.active_directory' folder did not complete. Account: 'msnews.microsoft.com', Server: 'msnews.microsoft.com', Protocol: NNTP, Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC15 Regarding that particular error number, I found this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813514 And this Internet search offers more links: http://ws.copernic.com/copern/ws/results/0/Error%20Number!3A%200x800CCC15/1/417/topnavigation/Relevance/iq=true/zoom=off/_iceUrlFlag=7?_IceUrl=true In general, if a Telnet console connection to port 119 works, then it is not likely a firewall issue. Outbound connections do not need firewall pinholes, and a successful Telnet connection only verifies that. The 'msnews.microsoft.com' server does not require authentication of any kind, nor does it require a secure connection. Using port 119, with no username and password should work. All that is left, really, is any third party anti spam, or anti virus applications, or other kind of proxy. MS Outlook Express seems to not play well with proxies. You could try lengthening the timeout value of the connection. Account Properties, Advance tab. Drag the slider closer to the right for a longer server timeout value. If you have not done so, try setting up logging. Tools | Options | Maintenance. Near the bottom is a "Troubleshooting" section with check boxes for SMTP, News, POP3, IMAP, and HTTPMail (maybe more, or different order). Place a check in the box labeled, "News". Here is an example for an article I posted to 'microsoft.public.test.here': | Microsoft Internet Messaging API 6.00.2900.5579 (xpsp_sp3_gdr.080411-1536) | NNTP Log started at 08/29/2009 05:02:13 | NNTP: 05:02:13 [db] Connecting to 'msnews.microsoft.com' on port 119. | NNTP: 05:02:13 [rx] 200 NNTP Service 6.0.3790.1830 Version: 6.0.3790.1830 Posting Allowed | NNTP: 05:02:13 [tx] MODE READER | NNTP: 05:02:13 [rx] 200 NNTP Service 6.0.3790.1830 Version: 6.0.3790.1830 Posting Allowed | NNTP: 05:02:13 [tx] POST | NNTP: 05:02:13 [rx] 340 Continue posting - terminate with period | NNTP: 05:02:13 [tx] | . | NNTP: 05:02:13 [rx] 240 Article Posted OK | NNTP: 05:02:14 [db] Connection to 'msnews.microsoft.com' closed. The file was located in the MSOE message store for this particular Identity, and was named, 'Microsoft Communities.log'. The name appears to relate to the "friendly name" of the server in your client; may be 'msnews.microsoft.com.log', if your account name is default. Try it, and post back the result. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |
