pullnews problem

Hallo,
I have a problem with pullnews part of inn-STABLE-20000614 and
libnet-1.0901

My pullnews config file looks like this:

# Format:
# hostname
# 	group date high
News.CIS.DFN.DE
	oecher.computer 0 0
	oecher.talk 0 0
news.rwth-aachen.de
	oecher.computer 0 0


Where I have no acount for news.rwth-aachen.de (only inserted for
testing)
but I have an acount for news.cis.dfn.de and made the entry in
passwd.nntp

The call of pullnews (as root and as user news) delivers this (no
complaints about missing passwords):

~news/bin/pullnews
Connecting to downstream host localhost...done.
connecting to upstream server News.CIS.DFN.DE...done.
 : 0 0 0
 : 0 0 0
connecting to upstream server news.rwth-aachen.de...done.
 : 0 0 0
Saving config
Fed 0 articles to the local server


Is there a newer version of pullnews where pullnews complaints about the
unsuccessfull authentification?
And where is the right file/place for the acount data?


Greetings
