Do you mean something like a firewall to stop them from
receiving/starting connections over specified ports? If so, you're
gonna wanna look at ipchains, not the hosts.deny/hosts.allow files.
Those are for allowing/denying access to services on your machine. If
that IS what you're looking for, check the man pages (man hosts.allow,
man hosts.deny);
