Yes, if I got those files wrong, I'd be in serious trouble. In hosts.deny I have simply: ALL: ALL which I understand denies all hosts access except those mentioned in hosts.allow. In hosts.allow I have: ALL:LOCAL sshd: 192.168.0.3 My /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.1.1 router.hartford-hwp.com router 192.168.1.4 teufel.hartford-hwp.com teufel 192.168.1.3 langhans.hartford-hwp.com langhans In the hosts.allow, I list simply the laptop that I would like to use as a SSH client, not the shared rounter, as you will note. Should I have listed the router instead of langhans (the laptop)? -- Haines Brown, KB1GRM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
