Hail All,

I have installed tcp wrappers in AIX 4.3 (P270) machine.
And configured the /etc/inetd.conf as to block telnet and ftp daemons
and added entries in /etc/hosts.deny as follows:

But, the system is blocking these for all the machines which try to connect
this machine.
Please provide solution.

/etc/inetd.conf entry:
------------------------
telnet stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd -l -d telnetd
ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd -l -d ftpd

/etc/hosts.deny entry:
----------------------

in.telnetd: <other machine ip address>
in.ftpd: <other machine ip address>

thanks and regards
