workaround -- vucsm.prac.casus @home
There is a workaround for getting access from outside the vu network,
as suggested by Kees Bot:

For me, it works with the command
(in cygwin bash shell)
plink -ssh -L 119:news.few.vu.nl:119 flits.cs.vu.nl
and I think that this also works with a student machine.
The news server/group is then, in the browser, available as:
news://localhost:119/vucsm.prac.casus
answer yes to the question server: localhost !
The putty suite can be obtained from:
