Hi,
For an Subnet, your entry in the hosts.allow should be
in.telnetd : 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
Change the Ip Adress and Subnetmask to your, that should be all

Dear All
I'm new to Linux so please forgive me if this is a dumb question.
I am trying to disable telnet access from certain systems/subnets to a Linux Server. I understand this can be acheievd by adding entries to the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files.
I have added
in.telnetd: x.x.x.
to the allow file (where x.x.x is the subnet that I want to allow telnet access)
and I have added
in.telnetd: ALL
to the deny file
So in theory this should allow access to x.x.x subnet and deny everything else?
Problem is I can still telnet from anywhere
Am I missing something?
Thanks
