net-news/leafnode-2.0.0_alpha20041215 local.groups file plz kick the dir /etc/leafnode/local.groups, because we need the possibility to put files in there ... these are example files (watch out the ^I are tabs) <snip> porkoo ~ # cat --show-tabs --show-ends /etc/leafnode/local.groups local.testing^Iy^Ilocal group for testing$ local.special^Im^Ilocal group with moderator$ porkoo ~ # cat --show-tabs --show-ends /etc/leafnode/moderators local.special:root@localhost$ </snip> and plz check the permission - the faq 6.2. says ... <snip> 6. fetchnews does not fetch any articles. Here are the two most common occurences which cause this error: 1. Your groupinfo file is corrupt. Restart fetchnews with the -f parameter. 2. /var/spool/news may have the wrong permissions. /var/spool/news and all its subdirectories should be drwxrwsr-x and owned by user and group news. </snip>
In CVS. Thanks!
