Even programs "directly" linked against libwrap (such as syslogd or sshd)
Is syslogd really linked against libwrap ? I read this the first time.
Whoops. You're right, syslogd (at least the way SuSE release[s|d] it) is not linked against libwrap. Anyway, I seem to remember a couple of projects trying to implement this for what they believed to be increased security. libwrapping syslogd in fact would arise a couple of problems. Anyway, this was not the issue here - so s/syslogd/sendmail/ (yes, sendmail _is_ linked against libwrap since SuSE 7.1. Lost a couple of mails because of that :-/ ) or s/syslogd/portmap/ or whatever.
