Thank you to all those who responded :))
I now have Leafnode-2 up and running smoothly with systemd.
I have created these files:
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/leafnode.socket [Unit] Description=Leafnode NNTP Socket
[Socket] ListenStream=119 Accept=yes
[Install] WantedBy=sockets.target
and
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/leafnode@.service [Unit] Description=Leafnode NNTP service After=syslog.target
This isn't needed. syslog is always available thanks to the journal socket.
[Service] ExecStart=/usr/local/sbin/leafnode
/usr/local?
StandardInput=socket User=news
Access control depends entirely on ufw (iptables), rather than specifying a hostname or IPv6 or IPv4 number in leafnode.socket, although that would
Binding to a specifc IP is hardly what I'd call access control.
probably work instead. The ListenStream line could probably be omitted entirely, unless some port other than 119 is required.
Without the ListenStream declaration, systemd has no idea what port to open the socket on. It's needed.
Run
# systemctl start leafnode.socket
and
# systemctl enable leafnode.socket
to start systemd listening for calls for Leafnode immediately and after the next system boot.
