Add yourself to hosts.allow which overrides any entries in hosts.deny -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
Good point. I was coming from a dynamic IP. But I could have added the ISP's subnet in the hosts.allow. Wasn't a big issue as it only happened a few times and was only a R&D box to play with so it could always wait until the next morning when I went in and removed the entry from host.deny. So never explored a better solution. Jacques B.
