I think it was mentioned here on the list a while back something to
the effect of tcp_wrappers not being as secure as blocking with
ipchains... is that the general consensus? I'm using tcp_wrappers to
block telnet from the outside to my home machine. I tried setting up
ipchains to do it with:
/sbin/ipchains -I input 1 -p tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d
cxxxxx-a.clmba1.mo.home.com 23 -l -j DENY
An incoming telnet session will "hang" with repeated attempts to
connect. Also tried REJECT on the ipchains command. What's more
desirable? Is that ipchains command correct?
Thanks
