 |
|
Simple question - how?
The ebuild for tcpwrappers says that:
REAL_DAEMON_DIR=/usr/sbin
... and the default directories for other daemons on Gentoo are the same.
I tried to just substitute tcpd for the daemon name in some /etc/init.d startup files, but that does not work 
Do I need change the ebuild, move my daemons into that directory, and then do some symlinking? Any details appreciated. I'd like to do this in the most "Gentoo-friendly" way as possible.

I could say the same thing - perhaps I am missing something - but I want to be able to control access to certain daemons from certain hosts. Xinetd is not required for tcpwrappers, although it makes it much easier to config.

most demons have their own access control (squid, apache) - the others could be handled with pam and iptables (stateful)...
if u want to use tcpwrapper anyway - no idea, sorry...

First, my request makes no sense to you because i don't want to xinetd.
Now, it doesn't make sense to you, cause why would anyone use tcpd when they can just configure every daemon?
If you have something useful to add, say it. If not, please go away. What you're doing is not constructive.
Thanks.
