What are the permissions and ownerships of /var/spool/news/message.id?

If you want to use local groups only, I believe that a bug in 2.0b8 is
that the subdirectories are not generated. In that case, you must
generate them by hand:

#!/bin/sh
cd /var/spool/news/message.id
for a in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
do
    for b in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
    do
        for c in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
	do
	    mkdir -p $a$b$c
	    chown news:news $a$b$c
        done
    done
done

(This will take a few seconds to complete.)
