Ah ha.It only uses it if it has been compiled with --with-libwrap (to use the TCP Wrappers library).
Discovered the problem, hosts.allow/hosts.deny was configured to only allow connections from one host. The thing that
was confusing was that it allowed the initial connection, but then closed it. But I guess that makes sense in a way.
But it still a small stupid thing, so look out for it :)
I didn't see anything in the doc's about MySQL using the hosts.allow/hosts.deny.
Umm query,sql
My guess (being one of the more 'security-minded' linux distributions), is that the Debian package version of MySQL is compiled with '--with-libwrap'
