It depends what you are trying to acheive? Are you going to use the
news server just for local newsgroups or do you want to host usenet
newsgroups on it? If you want to host usenet newsgroups then you'll
need to get a newsfeed from someone, http://netwinsite.com/feeds.htm
If you only want local newsgroups then the next step is to create the
newsgroups.
tellnews newgroup local.groupname1 y
tellnews newgroup local.groupname2 y
If you want to host newsgroups on your web pages then you'll need to
configure DNewsweb. You'll probably also want to customise the template
files.
See this page for information on configuring DNewsweb,
http://netwinsite.com/dnews/dnewsweb.htm
If you have trouble getting this working the way you want and you can't
find the answers in the
web manual then let us know where you've gotten stuck and we'll try to
help resolve the problem.

Brian

you upgrade due to a potential security issue found in those versions.
