Weird, I was unable to reproduce that on my machine, but now I can.
Log says:

May  3 15:23:44 mail1 cyrus/master[13361]: WARNING: cannot find
executable for service 'nntp' -- ignored
May  3 15:23:44 mail1 cyrus/master[13361]: ready for work

Problem is that though (if I understand the source correctly), that log
message should only be issued if the service is indeed ignored (and no
listener started for it), cyrmaster actually _does_ listen on the nntp port.

Any idea why this might be, Henrique? I certainly can't tell.

cu,
