Ok, I'll bite: what's the best way to use Leafnode for disconnected
operation?  My setup is currently to have Leafnode running on my home
firewall, and run Gnus on my main computer to read news from the
firewall.  

I installed Leafnode on the laptop, and pointed it at the Leafnode on
the firewall, copied over the interesting.groups directory, and ran
"fetchnews".  However, Gnus on the laptop doesn't seem to work
correctly when I rsync over my News/, .newsrc*, etc. files from my
main computer.  The groups seem to don't have any new articles.
Perhaps this is because the article numbers changed?
