luuk at opensuse:~> sudo lsof | grep nntp
xinetd     1133                root    5u     IPv4              11041 
      0t0        TCP *:nntp (LISTEN)

luuk at opensuse:~> cat /etc/xinetd.d/leafnode
service nntp
{
         disable         = no
         socket_type     = stream
         protocol        = tcp
         wait            = no
         user            = news
         server          = /usr/sbin/leafnode
}


In my /etc/xinetd.conf i have:
     v6only          = no

running opensuse 13.1


to test if this server is working, you can do:
luuk at opensuse:~> telnet opensuse nntp
