This is confusing the hell out of me :)  I don't think I'm missing
anything here, but even with "ALL : ALL : deny" in the hosts.allow I can
still telnet into this FreeBSD 4.1-RC box.

# cat /etc/inetd.conf | grep telnet
telnet  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/telnetd    telnetd -l -h
telnet  stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/libexec/telnetd    telnetd

# cat /etc/hosts.allow
ALL : ALL : deny

(from another computer)
# telnet www.xxx.yyy.zzz
Trying aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd....
Connected to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
Escape character is '^]'.
login: ^C
telnet> quit

Feel free to pass the point hat if I really missed something trivial here.
