I seem to have installed news in the interval between the positing of
the non-INET and INET checkgroups message.  Can someone give me a copy
of the INET groups version or tell me where it might be retrieved?

The groups seem to recreate themselves on receipt of new articles without
a creation control message of inews -C command -- is this normal behavior?
I thought even with NONEWGROUPS disabled the group had to be marked active
in order for news (2.11) to make a spooling directory and place articles
in it.
