You need to use "localhost" as your NNTP server. In addition to that, you
have to put the following line in your /etc/inetd.conf:

nntp  stream  tcp     nowait  news    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/leafnode

Adjust the path names, if necessary. Also don't forget to restart inetd by
issuing "killall -1 inetd" as root.
