RIght, it's not a function of either trn or leafnode. Trn will work with any
NNTP server, including Leafnode. On my OS, Gentoo, I believe leafnode has a
dependency on xinetd, which is configured as following:
/etc/xinetd.d/leafnode
service nntp
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = news
flags = REUSE
server = /usr/sbin/leafnode
bind = 127.0.0.1
log_on_failure += USERID
}
xinetd is simply started at boot, at leafnode automatically binds to
127.0.0.1 (localhost). Of course your hosts file will have to be sane for it
to work.
I'm sure there are many ways of binding leafnode to localhost, and directing
trn to 127.0.0.1. :)
