How to limit access
Posted: 23 Feb 2007, 12:29
I am trying to limit the outside access to my Bubba. It is behind a
firewall that only forwards Port 80 to it. But the firewall will not limit
who it forwards. So I added in /etc/hosts.deny to deny all and added
in /etc/hosts.allow my main host and my company which is external to
the firewall. This does seem to restrict ssh inside the firewall to only my main host but the http port does not seem to be restricted. Any suggestions. I see where this distribution does not have xinetd but only inetd.
