ATTENTION: there seems to be a possible bug (or did i misconfigure
harden_suse)??
After running harden_suse no remote login to my machine was possible. The
fault can be found in /etc/hosts.deny
cat /etc/hosts.deny
#
# This config file was changed by the harden_suse script to enforce a

# Think twice before changing an option.

April 2001
(Hardening script for SuSE to run after installing, creates also an undo
script)
Description (http://www.suse.de/~marc/harden_suse.html), on SuSE since v6.1,
works only on SuSE
If we look into the sourcecode of hardensuse we will see this:
