Is there a way for me to have private local newsgroups?

That is, I have a list of users and they should be the only ones who
can read and post to this newsgroup.  Better yet, no one else should
even know about this newsgroup.

I am using C-News and various news readers.

  For a good time, run "telnet debra.dgbt.doc.ca" and login as "chat".
