-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you are going to use "hosts allow" or "hosts deny", reverse DNS lookups must work on the server for any client connecting. You may want to run a caching and local DNS server.
Otherwise, you might prefer to not use hosts allow and hosts deny, but set up a firewall instead.
