Hi there,
if got a serious problem handeling my dnews server.

on my server are actually about 49 000 groups,
but if i want look at the groups with a news-server client
like outlook or something like that there are no
groups listed.

when i use: tellnews undelete "*"

it tells me:

200 news.xxxxxx.xxx DNEWS Version  5.6b1,, S0, posting OK
Setting {*} to undeleted state
49221 groups marked for undelete
281 Completed
205 closing connection - goodbye!

but after restarting dnews still no groups appear
It looks like all groups have been killed with
tellnews rmgroups "*" :-(

how do i get those groups back?
the items there are still listed:
tellnews showgroups

Connect manually:
        telnet localhost 119
        list active
Does that list the groups or not ?

also check 'access.conf' it's possible the groups exist but are 'hidden' due to access rules.

If you can't resolve send me
        tellnews status
        tellnews showgroups "rec.*"
        access.conf
        dnews.conf
                        ChrisP.
