Not reading /etc/hosts.allow

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 





Hi,

I have server: RH6.2/192.168.14.157   and 
       client: RH6.0/192.168.14.154

I setup in the server: /etc/hosts.allow
	   	       192.168.14.154

and in     	       /etc/hosts.deny
	   	       All: All

But I cannot do telnet from client (192.168.14.154) to the
server. It says "Connection closed by foreign host"

Why is that? I just follow the book which describes the
TCP_Wrapper as parse the /etc/hosts.allow first. If there 
is a match then let it in. Otherwise the TCP_Wrapper will 
check the line in /etc/hosts.deny to make a decision.

What did I do wrong? Can some one help me?

Thank you!

Philip Ching
