Unfortunately, I had to reinstall Ubuntu from scratch [1] and now I'm
going round reinstalling all the extra software that I'd had installed.
[1] caused by my increasingly unreliable hardware, I suspect..
However, when it comes to leafnode, I don't know how to start it! (Or
at least, I can't remember from last time; I really should write down my
notes more often, although I don't recall having any problems with
this last time..).
There isn't an entry for leafnode in /etc/init.d/ and if I simply try
to run 'leafnode' as root, while it seems to start (it displays a
startup message), if I try to run my newsreader (slrn), I get the
following error message:
Using newsrc file /home/david/.jnewsrc for server localhost.
Connecting to host localhost ...Unable to make connection. Giving up.
slrn fatal error:
Failed to initialize server.
Similarly, 'telnet localhost 119' produces:
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
There is an appropriate entry in /etc/hosts.allow:
#-- leafnode begin
leafnode: 127.0.0.1
#-- leafnode end
I'm afraid I don't have any further ideas of what to investigate. Does
anybody know why this is happening, how I can resolve this, and also
what The Ubuntu Way is to have leafnode start automatically on boot?
Thanks for any advice,
David.
