For sure. If this server is of interest to you as a developer, I can provide 
an account for you on one of my boxen for you. I believe that telnetting to a 
newserver can provide debug info, but it might also be possibe to enable 
forwarding or routing of some sort for you.

The syslog is pretty long. It is at:

I noticed..!

Well, as you will see, I get feed from another server which works fine. I 
would like to get from both, however.

After my original posting of last night, I had another flick thorough the 
archive for this mailing list. I came across a an article which said 
something like "Gee, 2.0b8, nobody reads bug reports for anything 
pre-Matthias, anymore". I thought it sensible to try leafnode-2.0b8_ma9, 
which your site lists as the latest stable.

Unfortunately, make fails on my system. I don't know if this is because I 
don't have automake installed..?

Session log, copied & pasted from the terminal is at:
