Ok here is one for you:
I'm running ftp out of inetd (i know...i will write a script to start it in
the correct place soon) I have re-started inetd when ever i change
anything in hosts allow/deny, etc.
I have installed ftpd:
localhost:~# dpkg -l ftpd | tail -1
ii ftpd 0.11-8potato.1 FTP server
my /etc/hosts.allow:
sshd: .mydomain.com
pop3d: .mydomain.com
smtp: .mydomain.com
ftpd: .mydomain.com
my /etc/hosts.deny:
ALL: ALL
the kicker, is that all my other services are running fine... <grumbles>
anyone have any ideas?
