I just installed FreeBSD 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek CDROM, but it
apparently ignores /etc/hosts.allow - does this version support this
or not?  What permissions/ownership is required?  Is there a different
filename convention used?  Is there some place where this
filename/location is specified, enabled or disabled?  Inquiring minds
want to know - thanks for any help!
