actually, you should also make sure the hp data protector server (which in this case Im assuming is called omni) uses the tcp wrappers. type ldd <fullly patthed server executable> and make sure that libwrap.so is in the list. If it isn't then tcp wrappers won't work, and you will have to use iptables.
