Hi All,
     I am trying to figure out the differences with the tcpd package that
is a security wrapper for TCP daemons and other tcp wrapper packages.
Normally, I have seen a Banners.Makefile loaded with some packages, for
example, tcp_wrappers-7.6 installs it as
/usr/share/doc/tcp_wrappers-7.6/Banners.Makefile. But tcpd does not include
this file in the rpm package. Yet both packages have the same README file
which mentions the use of Banners.Makefile. Can I assume the tcpd package
could utilize a similar Banners.Makefile format as that used in
tcp_wrappers-7.6? ie. Could I copy the Banners.Makefile from the
tcp_wrappers package into the tcpd directory?

Thanks,
