I setup leafnode with the following /etc/leafnode.conf
server = news.newsguy.com
expire = 30
username = some_user
password = some_password
# port = 8000
maxfetch = 2000
initialfetch = 1000
# delaybody = 0
# maxcrosspost = 5
# maxage = 21
#maxlines = 100
supplement = news.massena.com
Unfortunately, I'm not seeming to get the groups I would expect.
So now I execute fetch...
Sith:/usr/doc/leafnode/examples# fetch -fvv
1.6.2: verbosity level is 2

Now I check out what we grabbed...

It doesn't look like any of the newsguy.com goups were added at all. Any
help
would be greatly appreciated, since I can't live without my
alt.s^H^H^H^H^Hcomp.lang.c++.moderated. =)
It is possible that this is a quirk with newsguy that I have to resolve with
them,
but I didn't see anything in their FAQ. Also, I have connected via my
windows box
to newsguy and got everything, so my user/password stuff is good.
TIA.
