     Hi all.  I am trying to allow users to access nntp directly.  I have
updated my nntp_access file and nntp will talk to them.  However, they are
still unable to read anything.  For example, I can issue the group command
and nntp will respond    112 0 0 0 <groupname> .  Is there something I have
done or have to do to get nntp to actually function for these folks?  BTW,
receiving our news feed works fine.  Thanks!
