I have tcp_wrappers on my Solaris 8 box (Sparc) with the language
extensions enabled. As such, I use a single hosts.allow file (no
host.deny) with the format of:
service : who : allow|deny
I have Exim 3.34 compiled with TCP Wrappers as well....
I have noticed however, that despite entries in the file to indicate
that I want to block specific IP's, they don't appear to be phased by
it at all.
exim : xx.xx.xx.xx : deny
Using tcpdmatch exim xx.xx.xx.xx
shows denied like it should, but it appears that Exim doesn't see it.
I've even restarted exim thinking maybe it wants to reread the file??
Not knowing how Exim internally deals with this, the only idea I
could come up with was it wanted the info in a hosts.deny file??
Anyone else have this issue...
