Hello,

and sorry for the delay. I had a lot of work to do.

There was not much work to do. Playing around with netcat is not a
problem for me. The trickier part was writing an ebuild with a patch!
:-)

As long as I do not have to read and understand the "inner core" of
leafnode (I didn't even try), there's not much problem. NNTP is one of
my foreign languages.

It works! :-)

(Ok, the NEWS-part fails. That prevents an ebuild properly from working,
so I deleted the entire NEWS-part from the patch.)

Thank you for your really fast work, and please excuse my delay.

Have a nice day ...

Martin
