How do I shut them down? 2) how do I block my box from allowing access from certain IP addresses? should I add a hosts.deny file in /etc? Does FreeBSD recognize this convention? I am running 3.4 on intel 233... this is pertaining to Portsentry... it by default wants to add to hosts.deny and there is not a hosts.deny file there so I created one and it still allows you to connect from blocked addresses..?? any help is greatly appreciated... cheers raymond Hicks spreading the BSD way To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
