1. Setting up slrn and slrnpull

I'm trying to setup slrn to use slrnpull to read news with the Debian 2.0
beta.  I copied the slrn.rc_for_slrnpull to /etc/news/slrn.rc and changed
the hostname and username line to reflect my computer like this:

----
% This is a minimal .slrnrc file for use with slrn when it is used to
% read from an slrnpull spool directory.  Here I assume that the
% SLRNPULL_ROOT directory is /var/spool/slrnpull.
% Note that PULL_SUPPORT must be enabled in slrnfeat.h.

set spool_inn_root              "/var/spool/slrnpull"
set spool_root                  "/var/spool/slrnpull/news"
set spool_nov_root              "/var/spool/slrnpull/news"
set read_active                 1
set use_slrnpull                1

% Don't forget to set these up properly.

set hostname                    "idirect.com"
username                        "cwv"
----

My NNTPSERVER variable and my /etc/nntpserver file are both set for my news
server.  However, whenever I try to start slrn, it tries to look for news
at my news server at my ISP.  Since I'm using slrnpull I thought that slrn
wouldn't have to do this or am I wrong?
