This is the first attempt to contact news server: 
  name: news.verizon.net 
  IP: 199.045.049.011 
  Port: 119 
There is no response.  The IP is correct according to whois and nslookup.  
However, I can't get it to respond here when I do the standard test: 
 telnet -p 119 199.45.049.11 
This could be because it is dead or because it is set up ignore 
connections from outside the verizon.net domain.  Peter uses verizon so he 
can test this if helps lurking.  You do the same.  Just enter the command 
on the command line.

Another mystery packet.

Data cut off my end-user.  Please e-mail me the entire, unsullied trace 
file.  If it's big (i.e. over 500KB, zip it up first.  Otherwise, don't 
bother to zip it. 
Also, it would help if you sent along the output of: 
  ifconfig ppp0 
This helps me know which IPs apply to which systems. 
To summarize, there are two possible reasons for the failure: 
 - the news server is dead 
 - the news server does not believe you have the right to connect to it 
More will be revealed with additional analysis. 
You need to run the same trace when connected to a working news server.
