Q. Has anyone been able to get qmail working with
xinetd?
A. yes, here is the entry info
This method will allow you to set environment variables and whatnot in /etc/hosts.allow. Although xinetd can be compiled with libwrap support, this doesn't mean it can completly replace tcpd's functionality. xinetd calls host_access(), which performs the access control documented in host_access(5) man page. This is a subset of the features offered by tcpd.
