    Anyone have experience using 3rd party Usenet over HEAnet? (The ISP for most of the big third level institutions)

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HEAnet
    http://www.heanet.ie/




    They appear to have had their own usenet group, from their website:

    "Usenet News HEAnet provide a full USENET news service to clients in both IPv6 and IPv4. Our USENET service is fully customisable, and we can filter newsgroups in partnership with clients. HEAnet also provide Newsgroups local to the HEAnet news-server, viewable only by HEAnet clients and not part of USENET. This is currently being used to provide intersociety news-feeds between HEAnet member institutions and the Networking Societies RedBrick, TCD Netsoc and Skynet."


    Don't wan't to ask in IT, as if its a don't ask don't tell thing, don't want to flag the issue up!
