That wouldn't change anything to the issue. If portmap configures /etc/hosts.deny to deny access from all non-local IPs, packages requiring portmap to listen to remote addresses would have to modify hosts.deny as well, so a similar mechanism would have to be used, with the only difference that the system would be more fragile. -- .''`.
