Edit @LEAFNODE_CONFDIR@/config and make the necessary local
changes.

Leafnode needs to be run from inetd. An example configuration for
/etc/inetd.conf is as follows:

nntp stream tcp  nowait news @PREFIX@/sbin/leafnode leafnode
nntp stream tcp6 nowait news @PREFIX@/sbin/leafnode leafnode

Edit the news user's crontab to run an expiry job. For example, add:

0 4 * * *	@PREFIX@/sbin/texpire

As root or news, run "fetchnews". This may take some time. Then connect
to the leafnode server with an NNTP client. Select the groups you want
to read in the future by reading the "default" article in them.
Run "fetchnews" again. This run will pick up all the groups you want to
read. You may wish to automate the running of "fetchnews".
