I'm not familar with any console nntp readers. Are there easy way to do that?

lsof -i | grep xinetd
xinetd     7581     root    5u  IPv6 16752624      0t0  TCP *:nntp (LISTEN)

Hm, does this mean that is listen with TCP6 only?
I have line
        v6only          = no
in the xinetd.conf...

No, I beleive.

No.

Yes, sure. It's public web-server.

Thank you,
