I have the following `readers.conf` :-
```
auth private {
key: "private"
auth: "ckpasswd -f /usr/local/news/db/passwords"
}
access private {
key: "private"
users: "aaronngray"
newsgroups: "private.*"
}
auth public {
key: "public"
hosts: *
default: <norestriction>
}
access public {
key: "public"
users: "<norestriction>"
newsgroups: "comp.*"
}
```
which will not show private newsgroups.
```
auth public {
key: "public"
hosts: *
default: <norestriction>
}
access public {
key: "public"
users: "<norestriction>"
newsgroups: "comp.*"
}
auth private {
key: "private"
auth: "ckpasswd -f /usr/local/news/db/passwords"
}
access private {
key: "private"
users: "aaronngray"
newsgroups: "private.*"
}
```
will only show private newsgroups !
Hope you can put me right on this !
Many thanks in advance,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,What is the use case?? Should your user "aaronngray" have access to
both comp.* and private.*?If that is the case, you have to put
"private.*,comp.*" in your list.I would try:auth password {??? auth: "ckpasswd
-f /usr/local/news/db/passwords"? ?default: <norestriction>}access private {???
users: "aaronngray"??? newsgroups: "comp.*,private.*"}access public {?? users:
"<norestriction>"? ?newsgroups: "comp.*"}Identities are assigned from the last
matching line to the top.Note that an authenticated user with another login
than yours will not be granted any access in the above case as there isn't any
matching access line for him.See the "in a nutshell" section and examples in:?
