Upgrading is easy - Leafnode+ can be used as a direct replacement

for Leafnode. However, Leafnode+ will write some additional files in

the LIBDIR defined when compiling Leafnode+, usually

Most news reader software uses the NEWGROUPS command to learn about

the creation of new groups. The Leafnode+ news server does not

support this command. To check if new groups are available, see the
