The line "ALL: ALL" in /etc/hosts.deny protect all services using TCP wrapper on that machines from any clients, unless you have something in /etc/hosts.allow. Please, comment that line out or grant access to your MyProxy server in /etc/hosts.allow (manuals hosts.allow, hosts.deny can provide more details).

It is unusual that you do not have the hostname 'localhost' associated with 127.0.0.1. Your /etc/hosts should look rather:

127.0.0.1 localdomain.localhost localhost
<ip_address_assigned_to_non_loopback_interface> fool.man.machine fool

Hi Amitav,

deamon.log says that libwrap refused connection. You need to reconfigure libwrap. You probably have "ALL: PARANOID" in /etc/hosts.deny and a hostname of that machine does not match its address, so maybe you need only to correct /etc/hosts or DNS records (accordingly to configuration in /etc/nsswitch.conf).

Hi

Well my /etc/hosts.deny has "ALL: ALL" and my /etc/nsswitch.conf is as follows:

# Begin /etc/nsswitch.conf

passwd: files
group: files
shadow: files

publickey: files

hosts: files dns
networks: files

protocols: files
services: files
ethers: files
rpc: files

netgroup: files

# End /etc/nsswitch.conf

My /etc/hosts is as follows:

#
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#

#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
127.0.0.1       fool.man.machine        fool

# End of file
194.109.142.194 www.clamav.net

Please tell me how I should edit my hosts file or DNS records. I appreciate your help.

Regards
Amitav
