For services not run thru inetd, like sshd, tcp-wrappers support is generally there by default, assuming the daemon was compiled with libwrap support. check out man sshd. What all this means is that you can usually just configure /etc/hosts.allow and the services you include will be wrapped. hope this helps... -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel Frazier Tel: 302-239-5900 Ext. 231 Systems Administrator Fax: 302-239-3909 MAGPAGE, We Power the Internet WWW: http://www.magpage.com/ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759.
