When I run rrn from WAN remote news server and try to add 
the news group ``sci.space.news'' I get the the error message
``Warning! Bogus newsgroup: sci.space.news'' and then it will
proceed to delete all bogus news groups. If I add the news group
``sci.space.shuttle'' it works ok. 

If I run rrn to a LAN news server then it works ok I use a differend
newsrc file for both.  Also the folks at the WAN news server run rrn
and it adds sci.space.news ok.

Also when I run rrn to the WAN remote news server and  a new news group
comes in and I am asked if I want to subscribe and I say yes, it will also
tell me ``Warning! Bogus newsgroup......''

Can anyone explain what might be going on to cause this. Do I have to change 
something on my end or is it a the remote server end.



Thanks
Robert
