INN news config?

Anyone out there done an INN or other NNTP server config recently? Could be just with local newsgroups, but I'd like to set up a news server for Flutterby, it'd be really handy if it handled spaces in the user name authorization, and I'd like to mirror the discussions here on to the newsgroup. Just getting me through the basics of getting the authorization system set up should be fine, I haven't done this stuff since 1994, and that was a much simpler config in simpler days.

I finally gave up on INN, it was larger than what I needed
(which was just a simple place to dump incoming mailing lists so
I could browse them with a newsreader instead of an MUA). I went
with the Twisted NNTP server (http://www.twistedmatrix.com), which
is easy to extend (if you're comfortable with python) to do whatever
authentication you want.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
