You need to be looking at tcp wrappers. Perhaps it's standard on BSD/OS
these days? Anyway, it's not part of the default distribution of FreeBSD.
Look in /usr/ports/security/tcp_wrappers. You'll have to modify
/etc/inetd.conf on your own, and set up the hosts.deny and hosts.allow files
in /usr/local/etc
HTH.
