well DUH, you are trying to set up portmap for use in hosts.allow, and
here it was denied. Deny always takes precedence over allow so of
course it was failing.
Please read man 5 hosts_access before posting incorrect information to
an archived list. It doesn't help the person seeking help here, and
will confuse future googlers.
so let me understand this:
- 1st is deny
- 2nd is allow overriding the deny
is it correct? or i'm just confused.
