Hi,
Setting up INN is a bit cumbersome but a great feeling. Check to
see where the newsgroups file is located (see /etc/news/inn.conf )
Go to this directory and get the newsgroups and active files from the
internic (or a mirror - check the FAQ for this) to this directory. You can
also get the files from your favourite servers by using the
"getnewsgroups" command. Then you might have to manually edit the files so
that you have non identical entries in every line (use grep, cut, paste
for this). Check the configuration and reload the files for INN.
Use "suck" to get your news.
best wishes,
Indraneel
