`man hosts.allow` says that lines in hosts.allow "should satisfy the following

In your case the daemon_list is 'myproxy-server', the client_list is
'127.0.0.1' and the shell_command is empty. It means that you should have:
myproxy-server: LOCAL
However, it is common to have in /etc/hosts.allow the following line
ALL: LOCAL
than deny loopback access and protect a machine from itself. You can also
remove the line "ALL: ALL" from /etc/hosts.deny as I suggested several days ago.

Hey
I was wondering why without adding any lines to hosts.allow and hosts.deny I can
have credentials exchanged successfully when both the server and the client are
started on different terminals.
