Re: ftpd

["Robert L. Yelvington" <rly@sciresearch.com>]

If you don't want inetd to start a service, comment them out of inetd.conf.

Also tcp wrappers comes with 2 tools...tcpdchk and tcpdmatch.

use them to test and to list your deny/allow policies, respectively, as follows:

tcpdmatch <daemon> 127.0.0.1
tcpchk -v

hope this helps!
