Put the following in /etc/hosts.deny
all:all
and the following in /etc/hosts.allow
all: 127.0.0.1
and do killall -HUP inetd this will disallow any sort of connections to
services ran out of inetd to your machine other than from localhost. Since
Apache is ran outside of inetd (I hope you do that) it will be accessible.
Also, I suppose you run wu-imapd out of inetd, not tcpserver or
independently.
