[leafnode-list] fetch problem

[Patrice Pillot <p.pillot@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I cannot succeed in configuring fetch to fetch the list of newsgroup my upstream server propose.

Here's my leafnode.conf:
server = news.free.fr
expire = 20
username = myusernameasknownbymyisp
password = prettysecret

all other options are commented

Here's a sample session:
hloth:~# fetch -f -vvv
1.6.2: verbosity level is 3
Read active groups every 90 days
Unsubscribe unread groups after 7 days
Unsubscribe groups that have been read once after 2 days
Trying to connect to news.free.fr ... connected.
Trying to connect to news.free.fr ... connected.
LIST ACTIVE done -117539182 seconds ago, getting all groups

And here's what the console says:
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <## This is the NNTP server leafnode fetches its news from. 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <## You need read and post access to it. Mandatory. 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <server = news.free.fr 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: config: server is news.free.fr
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: < 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <## Unread discussion threads will be deleted after this many days if 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <## you don't define special expire times. Mandatory. 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: <expire = 20 
Apr 26 07:28:50 hloth fetch[259]: config: expire is 20 days
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: < 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <## 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <## All the following parameters are optional 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <## 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: < 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <## I have free access to my news server. If you don't have, comment out 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <## the following two lines and change them accordingly. 
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <username = [the right name]
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: config: username is [the right name]
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: <password = [the good one]
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: config: password is [the good one]
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: < 
		[ rest of the config file deleted ]
Apr 26 07:28:51 hloth fetch[259]: config: no postserver declaration in config file, using news.free.fr
Apr 26 07:28:52 hloth fetch[259]: <200 Bonjour les Freenautes!! (Typhoon v1.2.2-pre1) 
Apr 26 07:28:52 hloth fetch[259]: connected to 212.27.32.20
Apr 26 07:28:52 hloth fetch[259]: >MODE READER^M  
Apr 26 07:28:52 hloth fetch[259]: <200 Bonjour les Freenautes!! (Typhoon v1.2.2-pre1) 
Apr 26 07:28:52 hloth fetch[259]: >QUIT^M  
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: <200 Bonjour les Freenautes!! (Typhoon v1.2.3)
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: connected to 212.27.32.78
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: >MODE READER^M  
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: <200 Bonjour les Freenautes!! (Typhoon v1.2.3)
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: >LIST ACTIVE^M  
Apr 26 07:28:53 hloth fetch[259]: <215 NewsGroups Follow 

And then it hangs. Shouldn't it say LIST NEWSGROUP instead of LIST ACTIVE ?

Simple as the doc is, I didn't find anything that could help. I'm really stuck.

Oh ! I'm running leafnode 1.6.2 on a debian slink (2.1) if this matters.

Thanks in advance to anyone who'll give some hints.

Pat
