Thanks. I spent some more time overnight working on this. A combination of suck and inn seems like it is supposed to work. suck was dead easy to get working, but blowed if I can get inn to behave; I happily says that new groups will be accepted, but then continues to reject any arrivals from suck. At this point I have enough time invested that I'll give it another hour or two with the suck/inn combination, but if I still can't get it to work, I'll take a look at leafnode. BTW, out-of-the-box inn from the 8.1 distro did not work at all on my system because a bunch of permissions were set incorrectly -- rc.news would start it up, MCC would show that it was running, but in fact innd would simply crash immediately because some files were not writeable by the news user. It seems that MCC doesn't really know that a daemon is running; all it knows is that it was started and gave an [OK]; the fact that it died 10 microseconds later seems to be irrelevant.
