RTM $ cat /etc/hosts.deny # /etc/hosts.deny: list of hosts that are _not_ allowed to access the # system. # See the manual pages hosts_access(5), # hosts_options(5) # and /usr/doc/netbase/portmapper.txt.gz -> man 5 hosts_access IIRC hosts.allow/hosts.deny do only work for services started by inetd. Since Samba is running as a deamon, those files are ignored. > Any other recommendations? Set up a packetfilter and / or check the Samba manual to see if you can controll access using Samba options. -- Matthias Hentges [www.hentges.net] -> PGP + HTML are welcome ICQ: 97 26 97 4 -> No files, no URLs My OS: Debian Woody: Geek by Nature, Linux by Choice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
