response is: package tcp_wrappers is not installed. You would think if a
cut down package were not being used, fedora would be happy to make that
fact known, I think. That's why the warning from the friend I have that
handles stuff like this. I will let him know the results I got tonight
doing that command he'll probably not be surprised. By the way, I've been
told by my friend when you finally do get tcp_wrappers properly installed
and set up one of the things it does is to log all traffic in and out of
all ports on a computer which is why tcp_wrapper's logs stand up in court.
Those have been and are accepted as evidence. I take it probably md5sums
or crc32 checks also happen and become part of those records so that
modification can't be done without also very effectively tampering with
those numbers and log's contexts.
