I'm having some trouble getting rn to go properly on the Silicon Graphics. When I start it up without a .newsrc file, it creates one and then promptly decides that every group is bogus. A dump of the output is appended below. Has anyone encountered this problem? And if so what did you do to fix it?

Some of the Bugs, some of the time - stop HERE! Creating .newsrc in /u/csc/thetroll to be used by news programs. Done. If you have never used the news system before, you may find the articles in news.announce.newusers to be helpful. There is also a manual entry for rn. To get rid of newsgroups you aren't interested in, use the 'u' command. Type h for help at any time while running rn. Setting up .newsrc... Warning! Bogus newsgroup: vuw.ai Warning!
