Hi Jim,

Check the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files with this command.

$ tcpdchk -v

It will display everything in your two file and comments about problems.
If it complains that sshd is not in your /etc/inetd.conf file this is
normal is you start it from /etc/rc2.d. It might also complain about
portmap also. I've found this to be normal also, but anything else would
indicate problems.
