De syntax of hosts.allow is very clear and that is not my problem. I knew how to implement earlier releases of tcp_wrapper that operated in the old style. My point I'm trying to make is : I was looking for hints and tips on how to use the new-style tcp-wrappers and found the example config file in the ports collection. Although, after having a short chat with a collegue, I got it to work I think this example legacy file is confusing and should be changed and/or removed. But maybe I'm making the problem harder that it actually is. Cheers, a. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
