Re: tcp wrapper

hosts.deny (examples) ALL : 123.123.123.123 : reject or in.ftpd : ALL or in.ftpd : somedomain.com Same goes reverse for hosts.allow. You can allow or deny hosts to services controlled by inetd. I use this all the time. Another example. /etc/hosts.deny in.telnetd : ALL /etc/hosts.allow in.te

Re: tcp wrapper

using the /etc/hosts.deny and hosts.allow you can cut people off from certain protocols in the inetd.conf. ive used them once or twice but cant remember the exact syntax of the files. Steve Lee wrote: > > what is this and how is this related to > a firewall? > > -- > To unsubscribe: mail [EMAI
