But sendmail-8.10 ignores this file completely, even if compiled with tcp_wrappers support as follows: sh Build -c -DTCPWRAPPERS with ../devtools/Site/site.config.m4 containing: APPENDDEF(`confINCDIRS', `-I/usr/include') APPENDDEF(`confLIBDIRS', `-L/usr/lib') APPENDDEF(`confLIBS', `-lwrap') Is it necessary to run sendmail via inetd to get tcp wrapping according to /etc/hosts.allow? But it seems that to wrap sendmail, inetd does not need sendmail to be compiled with tcp_wrappers support? What tcp_wrappers support in sendmail means then?
