I have just converted over from a tcp_wrappers system to one using the internal libwrap'ed inetd. For the most part I have got the thing to work. One annoyance is that changes to /etc/hosts.allow don't get automatically used until inetd is killed and re-started. Does a SIGHUP work here, the man page doesn't mention it? However I have come unstuck getting NFS to work. It seems that portmap also has code to access libwrap. However I have tried many combinations of hosts.allow lines and killing portmap, but have not yet had it work. My log file says... Jun 22 17:12:56 XXXXX portmap[78016]: connect from XXX.XX.XXX.X to \ getport(nfs): request from unauthorized host The hosts.allow line is... portmap : localhost XXXXX.domain YYYYY.domain : allow When I kill off portmap and re-start it, rpcinfo -p shows... root@XXXXX:/ {510} # rpcinfo -p program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper So it appears to have lost the RPC registrations for mountd and nfsd. So what is the correct way to get the system back up and working after what should be (or was before) a trivial change to the hosts.allow file?
