Subject: Problem setting up nntpd (fwd)

I am attempting to setup nntpd.  I installed it and changed the owner and 
group to news on all the files.  I also changed the nntp line in the 
/etc/inetd.conf file to look like:

nntp    stream  tcp     nowait  news    /usr/local/libexec/nntpd        nntpd

I sent a HUP signal to the inetd process, but I am still getting 
Connection Refused if I attempt to telnet to the 119 port.

Please help!

Sincerely,
Daniel C. Fifield
