(hey, go easy on that Caps-lock key)

GNATS manages its own database -- it is simply a directory hierarchy where 
the PRs reside in separate files in this structure.

You seem not to have set up your inetd.conf file properly. You need to 
retrace the steps in the GNATS installation chapter of the manual and check 
your entry in inetd.conf.
