Re: hosts.allow/hosts.deny

[Matthias Oertli <oertlim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm...
I'm looking for an easy way to stop some PC's (on an
otherwise generally authorized subnet) to telnet to the 400.
Is there no way to deny a (specific) tcp connection? Or put
another way: if there's a route, connection is possible and
'undeniable'?
Regards,
Matthias
