I don't think nut is built with TCP wrappers support, although the package is listed as depending on libwrap...

Why would you have such a dependency if nut didn't use TCP Wrappers?

I ran this command: ldd /sbin/upsd | grep libwrap.so and it has returned no output.

If I run that command I get

No mention of libwrap, yet I have TCP wrappers compiled in.

Does this mean I have to compile from source or is there a way to add the tcp wrapper support?

If your binary does not include TCP Wrappers, then you don't need to add it, and you don't need /etc/hosts.allow. If your binary does include it, you need /etc/hosts.allow. You don't have to have TCP Wrappers, and you don't have to recompile.

Does your distribution have a mailing list which could answer the configuration question?
