I can't speak for the Debian packages, but I have built tcpd for BSDI. There is a Makefile option that chooses which rules behaviour to use by default. So, it would seem that someone changed that option between 1.3.0 and 1.3.1. However, I think you can make either set of rules work by supplying some config options - not 100% sure on this since I don't have the man page in front of me. : --- : George Bonser : Debian/GNU Linux See http://www.debian.org : Linux ...
