OK, let's eliminate that from the equation entirely, and
firewalling, too.

1) Rename hosts.deny to not.hosts.deny
2) Put ALL: ALL in hosts.allow
3) Do /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop
4) Just to make sure there's nothing weird going onm
   do /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables stop (iptables should not
   be running if you're using ipchains, but let's be absolutely
   sure);
5) Verify that leafnode is running;

Now, at this point, all access control is turned off, so
there should be nothing between you and port 119, so try
telnet localhost 119 and see what you get.
