Unix Tipz & Tricz

in /etc/xinetd.conf file, the Following are the Default options

************************************************************
{
instances = 10
log_type = SYSLOG authpriv
log_on_success = HOST PID
log_on_failure = HOST RECORD
}

includedir /etc/xinetd.d
***********************************************************

One nice Hidden Option is Available. i.e.

we can specify "only_from" option which enables the specified client or
network to access the xinetd services.

(

only_from = 10.6.10.6 or only_from = 10.0.0.0/24


}

The Same option can be Used for Telnet services.
