There is also the configure option --enable-uucp-rnews to use in order
to install rnews setuid news.
Default:
RNEWSGRP=news
RNEWSMODE=0500
With that option:
RNEWSGRP=uucp
RNEWSMODE=04550
If you do not want to run configure again, you only have to change
the group, the mode and the gid of rnews.
(and also $rnewsmode in innshellvars* and INN::Config, if used)

For security reasons, I will also add an iptable on TCP port 540 to
only allow your news server.
