Dear Folks,
I resolved the immediate problem, but I don't know why the
previous setup didn't work. I changed the name of the host in question to
a different domain name that the one in hosts.allow. I changed both
/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files. hosts.allow now has one line:
ALL: .turtle.com
hosts.deny also has just one line:
ANY: openwifi.turtle2.com
I am thoroghly perplexed why it didn't work withn the real domain name and
hosts.allow set for ALL: ALL
