Does AOL have NNTP news servers or is it all web based?

I fix/upgrade one of my friends computer often (AOL, can't get them to
switch) and I would to use OE to access a news server.  I tried to connect
to news.mho***.com but got an error, "not allowed to talk" or something
like that.

Any assistance would be great, as I know nothing about AOL.

Thanks,
Dan

They do NOT operate NNTP. You have to use their own interface
at keyword: USENET.

 However... If your provider is like GTE you can have multiple people
getting stuff from different locations (at least on the DSL service)
 I am using a borrowed AOL account but as soon as it connects I
minimize it and use Agent and IE6 for online stuff (and Cuteftp when
needed)
