TCP Wrappers
Authored by: FiercePanda on Jun 11, '04 12:41:38PM

I'm still using Jaguar, but I didn't need to rebuild sshd to get it to use TCP Wrappers. All I had to do was write an /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Is this different on Panther?

TCP Wrappers
Authored by: blakers on Jun 11, '04 06:25:42PM

honestly, that's a good question. i dunno ...

i always rebuild openssh with an up-to-date openssl build, and thus configure it with tcp-wrappers, as well as any other config i like.

if tcp-wrappers are already enabled in sshd, then that _should_ be just fine. i'm not sure at all how to check if it is, other than to try it ... and i've replaced my 'virgin install' instances ...
