Then:

    inncheck -a -pedantic -noperm

However, I note on another installation that I have:

23/12 19:06 news at guepard ~% inncheck
/etc/news/nntpsend.ctl:0: file missing
/etc/news/passwd.nntp:0: file missing

So maybe, something like that:

    inncheck -pedantic -noperm active incoming.conf newsgroups ...

with only mandatory files should be specified.
Yet, the newsgroups file is not mandatory and may be missing!


No inncheck then in daily Usenet reports?
Or inncheck (with -noperm and a list of files) by default and a "noinncheck"
keyword for news.daily?
