Comment(by martinsm@…):

 Replying to [comment:1 jmr@…]:
 Well, some more info, first a bit of background, I am not long in from
 freebsd land, just finding my way about making ports on osx...
 Anyway I have now verified that user _news exists, but netstat shows that
 nntp is not running, so presumably the service is not being started, in
 fact after a lengthy perusal of the messages, there is no mention of
 either leafnode or nntp.
 Where should I start looking for clues?
 I am learning as fast as I can, need to be pushed along a bit, cheers
