You're right - all approaches will work: 1. put restriction on front-end firewall 2. put restriction in ipchains 3. put restriction in xinetd.d 4. put restriction in hosts.allow/hosts.deny Whichever solution you chose, don't forget to do some testing to make sure... .../Ed Ed Wilts Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
