I assume I am not the only one who has heard about a program called "Satan" 
which is going to be released in early April.  Apparently it's a program to 
help system administrators find holes in their system security--the only 
catch being that anyone in the world will be able to run it against any system 
on the net.  So obviously it'll be a great tool for hackers...

Does anyone know how FreeBSD 2.0 will stack up against this program?  Are we 
going to have a bunch of holes discovered by teenagers just looking to make 
life difficult for us?

Also, in Linux and System-V systems there are files called hosts.deny and 
hosts.allow that allow you to allow/deny access to specific hosts on the net 
to particular services (or all services).  Are there any equivalents in BSD?  
I've read over the TCP/IP Admin. manual as well as scanned the man pages and I 
can't find anything.  I have a number of sites that I'd like to block access 
from before the Satan program is released.

Thanks,
  Craig Steiner
