What does it mean when it say's the ":" separator is missing?


What does your hosts.allow look like? Typically, when you're blocking services, you define a daemon_list and client_list, separated by a :, so for example, if you just want to block an ip from all your services, it would look like this:

   ALL: aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

   Notice the : - make sure you have that.
