[leafnode-list] Cannot update timestamp on /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/...: Operation not permitted

[David Aldred]

Just noticed this message repeatedly being thrown up by Leafnode:

Nov 17 23:22:41 main leafnode[25280]: Cannot update timestamp 
on /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/alt.os.linux.mandrake: Operation not 
permitted

(various groups are affected)

Looks like a permisions problem - but all files 
under /var/spool/news/interesting.groups (and the directory itself) have 
owner 'root', group 'news', and permissions 775.

The user news is a member of group news, so I thought it could access those 
directories and files.

What have I got wrong?
