veritas and Solaris 9 bulitin tcp wrappers

Does anyone know if the tcp wrappers that is bulitin to the

Solaris 9 OS will work on non-Sun products?

We use veritas to backup our servers, each host has a number

of entries in the /etc/inet/inetd.conf file to execute portions of

the veritas backup suite.

Once we enabled tcp-wrappers on Solaris 9 systems

veritas would not run, disabling tcp-wrappers veritas

executes as it did before.

NOTE: we were using Wietsmans' tcp-wrappers self compiled and

executed from a non-standard location but the veritas

services lists in the /etc/inet/inetd.conf file were not wrapped

Comments/suggestions appreciated

If ENABLE_TCPWRAPPERS is on in /etc/default/inetd then all tcp connections get wrapped automatically. Even without a specific "tcpd" entry in /etc/inetd.conf...

So you will need to add specific entries for netbackup in /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny to allow the netbackup connections.
