I am not an expert, but try the following line in your hosts.allow. ALL: localhost 128.206. : ALL If you have your own domain name, you can also use the following: ALL: .domain.name : ALL Note that you don't used a '*' or other wild-card characters, and use a space rather than a comma for separating. -- Carl Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
