Title: RE: [newbie] host.allow
I've seen this nomenclature in other places, like samba man etc, does it really mean to put the .com at the end. Should I be putting as an example localhost.localdomain.com or can I leave the .com off? This confuses me for some reason. Dennis

The format of hosts in hosts.allow or hosts.deny is:
SERVICE: host name
e.g:
TELNET: mydomain.com
FTP: 123.456.789.012 yourdomain.com
ALL: 111.111.111.
ALL: ALL
The first is specifying by domain name which has to be resolvable via DNS
or present in your /etc/hosts file to work. The second is
Does anyone know the format of how to a a host to host.allow if so could
they let me know!
