There was a leftover entry in PI_CONFIG that didn't actually have a corresponding directory on disk any more (due to me messing around). The problem only manifested itself in the nntpd daemon. Cleaning up the bogus entry in PI_CONFIG makes everything work just fine, but you may want to catch this condition early, as it may happen with mirroring when grokmirror purges repositories without cleanly removing config entries (I'm working on handling these situations via another grokmirror hook). Thanks for your help! Best regards, -K
