| cheers bsd team,
|   I had this question earlier but I am trying to get this done
| asap..  
| 
|   do I need to enable tcpwrappers to get my system to look to
| /etc/hosts.deny file?  I would like to use portsentry and it adds
| ips to this file but I can still connect from one of those
| addresses...  someone suggested adding "-wW" to my /etc/rc.conf
| file and rebooting then running tcpdchk and tcpdmatch to make sure
| it is working..  is this correct and is there a more detailed
| explanation out there?  where would I add this "-wW" line in
| rc.conf?  just stick it in there anywhere?  ANy help is greatly
| appreciated...
| 
| cheers
|
