I had the same problem a while ago. My solution was to hack the source in 
nnrpd.c's main() to read like this:


        if (ListenPort != NNTP_PORT)
                sprintf(buff, "nnrpd-%d.pid", ListenPort);
        else
                strcpy(buff, "nnrpd.pid");

        if ((pidfile = fopen(cpcatpath(innconf->pathrun, buff),
                                                "w")) == NULL) {
            syslog(L_ERROR, "cannot write nnrpd.pid %m");
            exit(1);
        }
        fprintf(pidfile,"%d\n", getpid());
        fclose(pidfile);

Maybe this should go into the main tree.
