Leafnode has been updated to 1.11.1. I have recompiled this to create a simpler default configuration file. Add your news server(s) and it should run "out of the box" (you need to edit /etc/xinited.d/leafnode as follows: service nntp { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = news server = /usr/sbin/leafnode # bind = 127.0.0.1 } ftp://ftp.tqmcube.com/pub/leafnode-1.11.1-1.FC3.i386.rpm -- Multi-RBL Check: http://www.TQMcube.com/rblcheck.htm Kill Spam at the Source: http://www.TQMcube.com/spam_trap.htm Today's Spam Trap Adds: http://www.TQMcube.com/BlockedToday RBLDNSD HowTo: http://www.TQMcube.com/rbldnsd.htm
