Did you look at the manpage ?
http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/inn/docs/readers.conf.html
I will give you some quick hints. There are not optimal and you should
tweak them according to your needs.
As for the active file, its whole contents is currently sent, if accessible.
You cannot select the groups you can send in reply to a "list active" command.

You can use localaddress: but also something like:
auth "localhost" {
hosts: "localhost, 127.0.0.1, stdin, news.serveur.fr"
key: "local"
default: "<localhost>"
}
access "localhost" {
users: "<localhost>"
key: "local"
newsgroups: "*"
access: RPA
}
> 2.
> Local mashines = my other mashines (kofobbs.net (WANs) + *.home (LANs)
auth "ecp" {
hosts: "*.kofobbs.net,*.home"
key: "machines"
default: <LOCAL>"
}
access "ecp" {
newsgroups: "*"
key: "machines"
access: RPA
}
> 3.
> Access for read-only of free active list
auth "ro" {
hosts: "*"
default: <FREE>"
}
access "ro" {
newsgroups: "*"
access: R
}
> 4.
> User by password file newusers (pwd file with users name | crypted pwd)
auth "users" {
hosts: "*"
key: "pwd"
auth: "ckpasswd -f /etc/news/users"
}
access "users" {
key: "pwd"
newsgroups: "*"
access: RPA
}

> hte best setup in readers.conf
Note that it is the last matching auth group which is used.
