Ok,

    Here is the thing, I have erased al the content in the /etc/hosts.allow
file, I couldnt get in to the telmex server at this time, but I have an
account (for testing purposes) in another server hosted by a good friend
called Thomas Mullaney (Thanks Thomas), I have created the /etc/hosts.deny
file, and the following lines are in there:

telnetd: 209.58.142.2
telnetd: .mullaney.org
telnetd: r2d2.mullaney.org

The first line its the IP address for the server of the line #3, and the
second line its self explanatory, and it still doesnt work, first I tried
with the second line, then I started to change it for the other lines, until
I had the three lines in the file, and still doesnt work, what am I missing
here???

BTW It only worked 2 times, then stopped working???

Aug 25 13:17:20 unix inetd[1838]: refused connection from r2d2.mullaney.org,
ser
vice telnet (tcp)
Aug 25 13:17:29 unix inetd[3276]: refused connection from r2d2.mullaney.org,
ser
vice telnet (tcp)
Aug 25 14:08:22 unix login: login from r2d2.mullaney.org on ttyp1 as ???

BTW I havent installed the port, because the release notes says that its
already built in the system.

Thanks

Ales
