Hi Davide,
I think configuration should be in either .emacs or .gnus .
If it doesn't work it might be that your friend has a different
ISP (internet service provider). Each ISP usually has their own
news server and you can't access one ISP's server from another.
You can set up simple news reading by simply adding:
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.hisserver.com"))
to your friends .emacs or .gnus file (obviously replacing hisserver
with his ISP's actual server)
I haven't tried to do much more than that in gnus,
but you should be able to find more info in the gnus
info manual.
