I have a SuSE (Linux 2.2.16) box and am trying to get tcpd to restrict access Effectively I want 1 machine to have telnet access say x.x.x.x (a 102. style internal domain) I have in /etc/inetd.
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd
and in /etc/hosts.allow telnet : x.x.x.x
and in /etc/hosts.deny telnet : ALL
Question is: why can anyone get on?
Just put into the /etc/hosts.allow: in.telnetd: x.x.x.x and into /etc/hosts.deny: in.telnetd: ALL That should give you the expected results. Ulf ____________________________________ Ulf Leichsenring Lufthansa Systems AS GmbH mailto:uleichsenring@lhsystemsas.de http://www.lhsystemsas.de
