Folks-
	I'm started up a news server on my Freebsd box (2.0.5) and
rather than compile it myself, I added the packages from the 2.0.5
release.  What I'm wondering is how should I start configuring it.  In
a sense, I'd almost be more comfortable with starting from scratch,
since the install scripts take some (not all) of the headache
away. Has anyone used the news packages?  (Cnews, nntp and inn) If so,
where did you begin in the configuration?  

	(For the record, I configured bnews/nntp along time ago, for
a different unix box.)
