First backup your newsgroups filesystem and run the command:
mkfs /dev/ru xxxxx:nnnnn 1 1
where xxxxx is size of filesystem in 1 kb blocks and
nnnnn is the number of inodes in filesystem. We have 70 MB
filesystem for news (/usr/spool/news) in our system and
25000 inodes seems to be right number for it.
After that restore your backup to new filesystem.
