Our local show(Foothills orchid Society) was a great success and I was even nominated for an award for my educational display of time lapse film of flowers opening. I didnt win because i didnt have any live plants in my video display. How i can have 200 plants and have nothing in bloom for the show is a mystery but thats the way it was. If the show was two weeks earlier..... or a month later. The big bonus is I had a net gain of ZERO plants. I gave a way an Onc orphan for the repotting demo and traded an AM Vulk. for future considerations(FCC catt. trianne). Picked up a couple of C.intermedia including a Coerulea seedling for $10. |

Maybe you don't seem to need a password because you have it stored in your computer. I just tried it again. When I go to subscribe to something, the first thing that happens is it asks for my user name. Since I don't have one of those, I can't even get to the list of available groups. Steve PS I just now gave it a try using "duncan" as my user name. The first time up popped a message that "authentication failed". I figured it recognized that I was not entering from their cable system. I tried one more and it seemed to accept it but then it asked for a password. Done. |

As Shaw is a cable service provide, it seems likely that they require SOME
sort of authentication. With Comcast and Verizon, it was a user name and password, but maybe they are OK with just a username. I think it more likely that they are using the registered MAC (media access control) address of your interface device (modem or router). The bottom line being that if you're not recognized as a paying user of their service, you ain't gettin' in. -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies.

I dont have to enter anything at all so it must be some kind of automatic
thing. I just remembered a freind of mine works at shaw doing some kind of computer consulting so maybey he will have some info on what might work (if anything will). Wow. I'm going to do something usefull with facebook. "Ray B" wrote in message ... As Shaw is a cable service provide, it seems likely that they require SOME sort of authentication.

You have to be on a shaw cable subnet From Duncan's earlier post we have an NNTP posting host of 68.144.31.175 Which is on a net block for shaw cable. And that's just a contract between shaw and high winds. -- Chris Dukes "Across this country, this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners, and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent" -- John McCain |

Earthlink bothered. Mebtel started to bother about the time I moved away from them. All of them had varying levels of service if you wanted to access their news servers from outside their netblocks. (As memory serves, earthlink worked from work). -- Chris Dukes "Across this country, this is the agenda I have set before my fellow prisoners, and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent" -- John McCain |
