Really the question is what do you want it to do? e.g. what
user database are you trying to lookup users in, and are you giving
a username and password and what ip address are you connecting from.
And what sort of restrictions do you want dnews to apply?

I can tell from the config settings what it 'is' doing, but not what you 
want it to do :-)

It would also help if you included the entire error.

Anyway in brief, try looking through this page 
http://netwinsite.com/dnews/access.htm

And as a guess try changing all the ':add" rules to ":addonly" rules, as you
have over lapping rules you must not use the 'add' action which is only
good with non overlapping rules.
