This configuration is too complex :) Here is how to do it with DNews...

Create a file in your workarea containing the group rules. You should specify one rule per line, e.g.

!*
alt.binaries.cracks
alt.binaries.cracks.phrozen-crew
alt.binaries.warez.ibm-pc.dos
alt.binaries.cd.image.linux
alt.binaries.warez.linux
alt.linux.slakware
alt.os.linux.slackware
...
@*.0-day
@*.2600.*
@*.cd.*
@*.d
@*mandrake*
@*.misc
...

Modify your nntp_feeder in dnews.conf to allow all groups -

nntp_feeder upstream.news.server * [username] [password]

Then, specify the file you created in your workarea for suck_file1 -

suck_file1 filename

Note, suck_file1 will not accept paths, the file must be in your dnews workarea.

Can you please have a look at the attached newsfeeds.conf?

When I 'tellnews updateone alt.binaries.cd.image.linux 1' (and set loglvl

from warn to info), I get this message:

info: pull: Skipping group which is not in 'me' feed {alt.binaries.cd.image.linux}

and I do not understand why.  Do you see any mistakes in the file?

Note: when I replace lines 2 thru 39 with "groups *" then updateone sucks
that NG, but I don't want ALL groups!

Thanks,
