I mean, in groups I have it setup like this
Newsgroup : uk.media.dvd
Destination Forum : uk.media.dvd
Footer :
Enabled : YES
Last Message Number : 0
Servername : default
Username : default
Password : default
I then telnet in and run ./newnews.pl and it updates
Last Message Number : 370200
But no posts are imported.

use a normal news client to check the last number of the message of the last message in the forum. Alternatively you could just set them to 0 and wait for it to catch up. Depends on the size of your batch setting and the number of articles on your news server as to which method is best. Article numbering and this unavoidable problem is explained in the hack instructions.
