I thought this would have been a required package to be installed by default but its not installed. I have been browsing through my RH security book "Red Hat Linux Security and Optimization" by Mohammed Kabir. I was actually going through the RH8 security section on NFS and it pointed to securing portmon which pointed to tcpwrappers. I then looked in the book to find more detailed info than what i was finding on websites about NFS/tcpwrappers and it showed that xinetd should be compiled running the configure script with "--with-libwrap=/usr/libwrap.a". So i looked for the file "libwrap.a" to see if it was installed and no it was not. I then looked to check to see if tcpd (tcpwrappers) was installed and no it was not. I was wondering why this was so. Any thoughts?
