A few months ago, people rehashed the old "how do I limit newsgroups
to a select few users?" question.  It was pointed out that there was
a problem with sites reading news via rrn being able to read these
newsgroups.  Well, I've been setting up some rrn sites and sure enough,
they can read my newsgroup priv.security even though its spool dir is set
to readable only by group wheel on my host machine.

Was a solution to this problem ever found?

Thanks,
