I have my default server set up to localhost, so this wasn't
necessary for me. However, I was emailed a message that told
me how to fix the problem. Since it wasn't CC'd to the list
I'll repeat it for the benefit of others:
There is a bug in the nn source. One work-around is to
ln -s /var/lib/new/active /usr/lib/news/active
as root. This puts a link in place to the active file
from where nn thinks it should be.
