I'm going to assume you have SmapiNNTPd listening on port 5000?

That said, it seems to be connecting fine, but now something may be broken with the .allow file now (I get this is what you were trying to explain before).

Did you try putting ::ffff:127.0.0.1 in there for shits and giggles to see if it let you in?

I'll take a look and see what I can find. Thanks for the info!
