SYNOPSIS
snnewgroup newsgroup [server] [port]
DESCRIPTION
snnewgroup creates newsgroup assigning it an upstream NNTP server of

also not specified, newsgroup is created as a local group which is fed
only by articles POSTed to it.
You will need to be root or own /var/spool/sn in order to add new
groups.
