[leafnode-list] Fetchnews doesn't fetch any news

[houghi]

I have a NAS QNAP TS-410 and installed leafnode on it. The service is
running. I can telnet to it and I even can get a post into the queue and
see that with newsq:

[~] # newsq 
Contents of queue in directory /opt/var/spool/news/out.going:
19406-1324730814-3: complete        194 bytes, spooled Sat Dec 24 13:47:42

	Subject:    Test 01
	Message-ID: <u6ugs8-eui.ln1 at nas.houghi>

However when I try to fetch news, I can't seenm to get it to work.

[~] # fetchnews -f -vvvv
leafnode 1.11.7: verbosity level is 4, debugmode is 0
Forced active fetch requested from command-line (option -f).

news.sunsite.dk: connecting to port nntp...
Aborted

The config file is from another system that works. The connecting to port nntp works as well:

[~] # telnet news.sunsite.dk nntp
200 news.sunsite.dk NNRP Service Ready - staff at sunsite.dk (posting ok).
quit
205 Transferred 73 bytes in 0 articles, 0 groups.  Disconnecting.
Connection closed by foreign host.

The file that I used to do the install is : http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/unstable/leafnode_1.11.7-1_arm.ipk

What can I do to get this working?
