Well, in the xinetd.conf file, there is a directive in eace service section
that specifies 'something' = tcp. I forget what 'something' is..I'm not at
home. And I fugured that tcpd then controled those specified. Maybe I'm
wrong. Oh, I'm using 7.0. And, if these services no longer use tcp, how to
allow and restrict access from certain hosts?

xinetd usually doesn't call tcpd, so hosts.allow and hosts.deny won't be
used. I don't know if you're using Red Hat 7.0 or 6.2... in 7.0, the
default configuration for wu-ftpd is:
# default: on
# description: The wu-ftpd FTP server serves FTP connections. It uses \
# normal, unencrypted usernames and passwords for authentication.
service ftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
server_args = -l -a
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
nice = 10
}
Telnet should (I think, it's not installed) be:
service telnet
{
disable = yes
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
}
