There are inofficial updates (1.9.43) for Woody, courtesy of Mark Brown,
please see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.leafnode/1993 and

The documentation of leafnode 1.9.43 is at
http://mandree.home.pages.de/leafnode/leafnode-readme.txt - the
TROUBLESHOOTING section should help you with diagnosing what command
fails and what the server responds. NNTP dialogues are most useful. Post
short excerpts (a dozen lines) to the list, make longer available on the
web or send bzip2'ed or gzip'ed files directly to my address.
