simple test ... 
( use your positive or negative logic equivalents for these files )

/etc/hosts.deny
        ALL : ALL

and try to make your ssh work .. when yu give yp ..

you'll find that you will need to have

/etc/hosts.allow
        sshd : 192.168.123.456

restart the inetd or sshd as needed

whether inetd is good or bad is a separate issue
