No, you just need to allow access. By default, debian is set up to
deny access to machines it can't get a name for. (You can see what
happened if you look at /var/log/daemon.log) You have at least
two options, then:
Add a line to /etc/hosts for every host that you will want to access
your machine from, something like this:
192.68.0.1 cushl.localnet cushl
192.68.0.2 wsw.localnet wsw
Or, you can change this default policy by commenting out the "ALL:
PARANOID" line in /etc/hosts.deny. Then, any host will be able to
connect to your machine.
