I noticed the release notes for FreeBSD 3.2 state tcp_wrappers is now
part of the system. If this is the case, where is tcpd ??? I installed
the full set of stuff and no tcpd is found. Does it just mean the network
daemons are compiled with tcp_wrappers? I installed the tcp_wrappers port
and it seems to work fine, it's blocking access per hosts.allow rules
however I can't seem to get it to log the activity. Looks like it defaults
to auth.info severity in the ALL: ALL: rule at the bottom of the canned
hosts.allow. I added a syslog line to capture these messages, it looks like
# $Id: syslog.conf,v 1.9 1998/10/14 21:59:55 nate Exp $
#
# Spaces are NOT valid field separators in this file.
# Consult the syslog.conf(5) manpage.

What am I doing wrong??? security.log does not get updated when I block
access
intentionally to a machine in my internal network and test the access to
insure
tcp_wrappers is working. I do get a deny message to a terminal I am
testing from
i.e. I attempt a telnet session and tcpd looks up the rules and denies just
fine
I am just not getting the log....
