[leafnode-list] How to turn off reading new newsgroups?

[Andrey Khavryuchenko <akhavr@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello!

I've read FAQ and skimmed through mailing list archives and found no
answer.

I've got following configuration:

--------------------
hostname = kds.com.ua

server = news.interstrada.net
expire = 20

server = news.gnus.org
expire = 20
nodesc = 1
--------------------

Server news.gnus.org is causing problems:

Sep  2 18:20:23 netmaster fetchnews[3456]: connected to 195.204.10.139: 200
Sep  2 18:20:24 netmaster fetchnews[3456]: Reading new newsgroups failed
Sep  2 18:20:24 netmaster fetchnews[3456]: Read server info from /var/spool/news/leaf.node/news.gnus.org

And manual inspection confirms that:

[akhavr@netmaster akhavr]$ telnet news.gnus.org nntp
