We run nn 6.3.10. Several newsgroups consistently report errors
in the log file and are unreadable by nn. I believe that this is
because they have no .x and .d files. Nnadmin reports database 
inconsistency on these groups and attempts to renumber them. 

What is the best way to fix this problem? I have tried Recollecting
these groups, with no success. Can I just create empty .x and .d
files for these newsgroups?

Here is a sample from the log file:

X: Feb 20 20:13 (M): group comp.lang.asm370 renumbered
X: Feb 20 20:13 (M): group comp.sys.zenith.z100 renumbered
X: Feb 20 20:13 (M): group comp.terminals.tty5620 renumbered
C: Feb 20 20:13 (M): Collect:  27 art, 23 gr, 14 s 
V: Feb 20 21:52 (dave): Database inconsistency in group comp.terminals.tty5620
V: Feb 20 21:52 (dave): Database inconsistency in group comp.sys.zenith.z100
V: Feb 20 21:53 (dave): Database inconsistency in group comp.lang.asm370

Any help would be appreciated!
