Using the blog plugin to geeklog

OK, does this go to teknoids.net through a geeklog plugin?

Try 1: no go.  Here's the error:

Last error: The server, www.teknoids.net, returned error code 800: Unknown topic.

I added 'general' as the blogid to see if that works.

Try 2: It worked.  The post went right through to the front page though without some of the html.
