Description ROCHE 2006-02-16 15:36:18 UTC
Description of problem:

I have this file for /etc/hosts.deny:
#
# hosts.deny	This file describes the names of the hosts which are
#		*not* allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
#		by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#
# The portmap line is redundant, but it is left to remind you that
# the new secure portmap uses hosts.deny and hosts.allow.  In particular
# you should know that NFS uses portmap!
ALL:ALL

I have this file for /etc/hosts.allow (empty) :
#
# hosts.allow	This file describes the names of the hosts which are
#		allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
#		by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#

with # ps -aux |grep xinetd

Do I understand correctly that your problem is that you can't restrict HTTP &
SMB access using hosts.deny?

What is the word "spawn" supposed to mean in the second item of "PROBLEM" ?

Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2007-04-10 19:40:59 UTC
Fedora Core 4 is now completely unmaintained. These bugs can't be fixed in that
version. If the issue still persists in current Fedora Core, please reopen.
Thank you, and sorry about this.
