The procedure I described is for  *real* Usenet (NNTP) access to a Gmane 
News (NNTP=Usenet) group via a News (NNTP=Usenet) client. Why all the red 
herrings about web interfaces? Who mentioned them. I'm talking 
Usenet=NNTP=News as per 30 years or so ago, long before the web was ever 
built (1990 or so).
