Hi,
I figured out that pullnews was lacking the opportunity to specify
the NNTP port of the target server (usually localhost). I added this
in a little patch attached below. Please review and see if it's good
enough to be integrated into the distribution. If that option has
aleady been integrated into newer INN distributions, simply ignore ;-)
This patch is against pullnews.in from the 990723 stable version.
