    I'm getting a 400 nntp server not availble. on connections and commands.
    auth "<anonymous>" {

    default "[anonymous>"
    access <"anonymous>" {

    }

    If that's really your reader.conf file it's full of errors. It should
    be "hosts", not "host", and there should be colon after it, and after
    other keywords. And there's a missing close brace. And you've got a
    square bracket in the default user "[anonymous>" which won't match "<anonymous>" in the users line.

    hello I made my own readers.conf file.
    I'm getting a 400 nntp server not availble. on connections and commands.
    auth "<anonymous>" {
    host "0.0.0.0"
    default "[anonymous>"
    access <"anonymous>" {
    users "<anonymous>"
    newsgroups "*"
    }
    not sure what is going wrong and the logs don't really tell me anything.
