[leafnode-list] Leafnode setup (FBSD); unable to post

[Mark Weinem <mark.weinem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

How do I setup Leafnode correctly (FreeBSD 4.4)?

Package leafnode-1.9.19 is installed, but it comes without any
informations about the basic setup.

For now, i use the line 
    
    nntp stream tcp nowait news /usr/local/sbin/leafnode

in /etc/inetd.conf to start it and the line

    leafnode : localhost : allow

in /etc/hosts.allow. 

Is this correct?

Leafnode is running and i can fetch news - but i cannot post:

    fetchnews -P -vvvv
    1.9.19: verbosity level is 4
    Trying to connect to news.uni-duisburg.de ... connected.
