[leafnode-list] leafnode 2.0b won't accept messages from mail2news.



I've setup leafnode (2.0b) with local groups for mailing lists (this
being one of them).  But after changing server to Mandrake 8.2 with
security level "Higher" (if this matters!), leafnode won't accept
messages in 'in.coming' - giving these error messages (one for each
file in in.coming:

fetchnews mode: get articles, get headers, get bodies, post articles
found 19 articles in in.coming.

store: cannot open current directory
Could not store /var/spool/news/in.coming/2775-1030980074-1:
  "OS trouble, see previous log messages for details",
  moving to /var/spool/news/failed.postings/
cannot move /var/spool/news/in.coming/2775-1030980074-1 to
   /var/spool/news/failed.postings/: No such file or directory

Funny thing is:  First time run, it's ok when I starts slrn, but
then no more.  I was running b8_ma10pre2, and upgraded to snapshot
2002.08.23a.  And first time getting messages after this upgrade,
mails handled by mail2news was accepted and put into corresponding
local/<groups>.
But then no more (as before)...

I can't figure out what the problem is (it may be that Mandrake
changes something (it runs a security script every hour)), but
the funny thing is that "ordinary" news works ok and mail2news
places messages in 'in.coming' - but leafnode claims that it can't
read in.coming (and that failed.postings doesn't exist, which it
do).  leafnode has no problem with the other directories in 
/var/spool/news/ so why any problems with these?

Access for various files directories as follows (anything wrong
that someone can see?):
