Ok, I fixed this, I made a mistake around key: "users" in access "users"
somewhere at first...

and fixed another key for auth & access "admin" class, which was giving me
the error I mentioned.

Two Issues:

1. One problem remains, how would inn allow user without any login/password in
under `access "no-passwd"' ?

When I try to connect and hit enter/enter (or type something that doesn't
exist in password files) I get "502 Authentication fail" error.

2. And another one, is there a way to allow 'admin' class to delete
any article in any newsgroup? I couldn't find anything in the man page for 
readers.conf in regards to this.

Thank you again,
