>>We use Winproxy, so I don't have any experience with Wingate. However, in Winproxy, when setting the properties (may be configuration in Wingate) there is a place to set up the firewall protocols. In this area, I can go to the News Setup, and set the News Server IP to our News Server (i.e. news.netscape.net) Then make sure you have a News Proxy Port entered (normally 119) for all of your workstations to point to. This enables any workstation on your network to access the News Server via the server IP.

>>Firewall Config:

I haven't had any experiences (or problems) with Winproxy disconnecting so I don't know what to suggest to keep WinGate from doing it.

Sorry Michelle!
