Looks like INN isn't quite as trusting as CNews, so it doesn't
automatically create a group when it receives a control message.
Anyone know how to make it do that, or at least email me
to notify of the new group?

(Gadzooks; first time I've seen Newsgroups: for ages!)
Isn't there a config file that says something like "this user can issue
these ctl commands for these groups"?

I have not touched INN in ages either. I'm sure you need to be in
control.ctl to configure this. It will be a while until we see
control message abuse on this August network, so you could probably
put in something like newgroup:*:*:doit for now.

ctlinnd newgroup tuhs.tuhslist
I think that's what I did on my Inn system.
