Can anyone tell me how to get around the following problem: I have tcp wrappers set up in inetd.conf. When I try to telnet to the server, it takes quite a long time before I get the prompt. In hosts.allow I have set up ...
ALL: 192. ... which should be allowing all internal hosts onto the machine without having to do reverse resolution. However, it still is. If I add my ip to the /etc/hosts file, then I get the login prompt IMMEDIATELY on connect. What can I do to have the wrappers NOT do a reverse lookup. I am thinking perhaps the tcpd maintainer may have compiled PARANOID into the package, but I can not confirm that this may be the case. I definitely do not wish to add each workstation in the /etc/hosts file, since having several hundred entries is pretty ugly. Any help would be really appreciated. -- Dana M.
