[fixes deleted, works fine]

I don't know, noffle fetches news fine, but it doesn't serve as
expected. 

root# noffle -r
200 NNTP server NOFFLE 1.1.5

ps auxw shows noffle running as user news, syslog says it's started,
but no service on port 119 is provided (also according to nmap). 

My /etc/xinetd.d/noffle: 

service noffle
{
	disable = no
	socket_type	= stream
	protocol = tcp
	wait		= no
	user		= news
	server		= /usr/sbin/tcpd
	server_args	= /usr/local/bin/noffle -r
	groups		= yes
	flags		= REUSE IPv6
}

Is that wrong maybe?
