   What is the best news server package for running a limited news feed 
   on my FreeBSD 2.1.0-Release host.  I only want to pull in the say 10
   - 20 groups which I am interested in at the moment, in order to speed
   up my news reading.

I don't know what's "best".  INN is probably the most widely used.
