K in Server buffer on a Denied entry does not work

[Xavier Maillard]

Hello,

after years far from Gnus, I am back in the business. My skills are
closed to zero :D

I started to use it first for NNTP stuff (gmane and folks). I must have
done something stupid somewhere and now, pressing '^' gives me this:

{nntp:news.gmane.org} (opened)
{nnfolder:archive} (opened)
{nntp:news.free.fr} (opened)
{nndraft:} (opened)
{nntp:news.my_news_server.com} (denied)

how the hell can I delete/drop latest entry ? K does not nothing usefull here.

Thank you very much

Hi Xavier,

The "denied" means "I couldn't connect to this server on my last try, so
I'm going to block further connection attempts until the user tells me
otherwise." You can clear a denial with R
(`gnus-server-remove-denials') in the *Server* buffer, which will let it
try connecting again.

BTW, to delete an entry in the *Server* buffer it's k -- note lowercase.

Did it. It changed from 'denied' to 'closed' status.

yes, I pressed 'k' and still nothing happened. The 'denied' server entry
is still there (sadly). Where is this saved to ?

After trying at least every gnus server keystrokes, I still have this
bogus entry. Where does Gnus store server informations ?

~/.newsrc.eld perhaps?
