tlug: wildcards in /etc/hosts.deny

[Jim Schweizer <schweiz_nospam@example.com>]

Hi,

Did you know there's nothing apropos for hosts.deny? No man page,
nothing in Running Linux, Practical UNIX & Internet Security, UNIX
System Administration Handbook or the Linux Network Administrator's
Guide!

Geeze!

Anyway, are wildcards like * allowed? For example can I do:

ALL : *.goo.ne.jp
ALL : *.melco.co.jp

and have it work? Also do I have to HUP inetd for changes to take place?

Thanks,

Jim S.
