i think it might be more complicated than that -- i'm fairly certain that you don't use in.fingerd as the service name in hosts_access. at least, i think i'm fairly certain. :)
afaik, all the services that i've wrapped up follow your rule *except* cvs-pserver, which happens to be the ugly duckling. i've never played around with net-bios. i just unwrapped all services for that host for now, and once samba gets working will play around with this (and report my findings). thanks! pete begin Rod Roark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hmm, maybe it really is the program name.
