Howdy Faithful!

On March 3rd my IP provider who has had a good relationship with Cogent for
all their Newsgroup services for years suddenly went down the drain.  My IP
provider had no bad issues with their server, but even they did not know
that Cogent gave up completely on Newsgroup service that day!  Yes, there
are a number of 'paid for' Newsgroup entities that perhaps can provide the
service, but I'd badly like to have the complete OS/2 Newsgroup access
without paying per month for it.  I've done some research and it looks like
the MIT Edu folks may be handling the complete core for this.  However I do
not have any at this point understanding how I might be able to simply use
them for a 'server' for all this.

Can anyone point me to an IP address where I might be able to 'log in' and
recover my OS/2 Newsgroup service?

Thank you!
