Actually, I think that instead of using the "only_from" line in your
/etc/xinetd.d/swat file, you're better off using /etc/hosts.deny and
/etc/hosts.allow.
In the /etc/hosts.deny file, have a line that reads
"swat: ALL"
And in the /etc/hosts.allow file, have a line that reads:
"swat: ip.network.address.here/net.mask.here.too, .domain.com"
I've heard that you can use CIDR notation (/24, etc) on the IP address
setup line, but I haven't tried it, myself.
