It depends on what you're trying to acheive Stuart.  Also - unless you've
got a sshd entry in your /etc/hosts.deny it's all academic as even without a
specific allow entry any one can connect anyway.  But all of thats academic
unless your sshd was built with the --with-tcp-wrappers but if you installed
it from RPM it will be.
