What's your news server, and what are the permissions on the file in
question?  leafnode is very sensitive to file permissions, everything
under /var/spool/news should be owned by leafnode.leafnode.  Not sure
about inn, which is the usual other suspect.  /var/spool/news/control
doesn't exist in my leafnode spool.
