            Bug ID: 339873
           Summary: Authenticating wrong newsserver?
           Product: knode
           Version: 4.11.5
          Platform: Mageia RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: herman.viaene at edpnet.be

I use knode to read two newsservers. Due to a KDE-related problem I lost the
settings for knode.
I copied from backups, but this did not restore the password.
So now I have two newsservers, the first one (news.mozilla.org) does not
require a password, but the second one (news.edpnet.be) does. When I start
knode , it does not know the password for edpnet, and a dialogue is opened
mentioning the second server (edpnet). But I guess, knode tries to apply it to
the first newsserver, because whatever I input there, knode returns error on
it.
But when I introduce the password in the settings of the second newsserver
(edpnet), then all is OK.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Connect to first newsserver , one which requires no password.
2.Connect to second newsserver , one which requires a password, but don't
specify it.
3.Start knode again

Actual Results:  
Filling out the password dialogue never is successfull


Apply the password to the correct server
