Excuse me this prob was solved after a Jens Kutilek email.

for a unknown reason leafnode perms was :

$ sudo ls -al /usr/local/sbin
[snip]
srwx------    1 news  news         0 Oct 26 12:02 leafnode
^--------------------------------------- 
^---------------------------------- ???

i know leafnode is a "light" nntp server but to this point of being  
zero size ;-)

then i've trashed every bins belonging to leafnode and reinstall  
leafnode again with JK dmg package and get :

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root  wheel   165552 Dec 15  2005 leafnode


now the "503 Server misconfiguration: cannot read configuration file."

first i've to say it was the FIRST time i've used a standard text  
editor in order to edit leafnode's config files.

(i post that here for the purpose of lists's archive)

i've made use, to open a config file, of the command line :

sudo open <the config file>

which opens it in SubEthaEdit

and also with the command line :

mate <the config file> which opens it using TextMate.

one of those had changed the owner of the config file to :

user = yvon (me)
group : admin


after changing "manually" the file owner to news, leafnode didn't  
complain anymore about misconfiguration.

best,

Yvon
