iptables and hosts.deny

Hi guys,

Potentially a stupid question, but I've no clue exactly how iptables works. So:

Do I need to make a special configuration change in iptables to make it take into account the hosts.deny file?

Thanks,
Max

Aha, so I specifically need to re-compile OpenSSH with the tcpd USE flag to make sure that sshd connections take this file into effect. Correct?
