tnftpd no tcp wrappers on freebsd
Hi Luke, hi NetBSD tech-userlevel,
I installed tnftpd as my favorite FTP daemon on a FreeBSD box but I
observed that I couldn't reject some dirty hackers trying to brute force
it, as it isn't linked against libwrap on that system. I guess or I
hope it is TCP wrappers capable on NetBSD, but that feature seems to be
missing on FreeBSD which also has a specific /etc/hosts.allow mechanism.
Compiling ot from the ports tree or getting the prepared binary brings
the same. I also looked at ./configure --help output and didn't see
anything about tcp wrappers nor libwrap.
Is there some way that I can keep my daemon up while still being able to
refuse specific IP or hostnames trying to brute force?
Thanks
Best regards,
Pierre-Philipp
