Thanks, actually what I ended up doing is just installing RedHat's non smp
kernel 2.2.16-22 and compiling that as SMP.  That way I get a kernel
2.2.16-22 that's smp.  This isn't the first time RedHat's multiple names
for the same kernel has screwed up software I've installed.

Thanks, I saw that in the man pages for it, I guess it's all how you look
at it, the no_access and only_from give you nice control, but it's more
work than just one hosts.deny/hosts.allow file, and harder to remember
what you set everything to!  BUT, I did notice in the faq that you can
have TCP Wrappers running with xinetd by changing the server = line to:

server          = /usr/sbin/tcpd

or wherever your tcpd is.  I'll try that.

I see, I'll give that a shot and see what happens.  Qmail wouldn't even
show up when you telnetted to port 25 before, maybe this will fix
it.  Thanks again for all your help!
