well, did a fresh install, then tried to copy stuff over from the very old install.
I did all the hard things, but forgot the easy ones "make update"
after I did the make update and restarted innd, I was able to list the groups after connecting
to the server via telnet on port 119.

but, when I connect from a remote box with tin, I get the following.
servers active-file contains no newsgroups. Exiting.

I believe this has to do with the readers.conf config, but I cant find any readers.conf in my old 
inn install. What file(s) do I need to be looking at in the old inn install to find out what 
access permissions I need to transfer over to readers.conf in the new install?

thanks again,
Jason
