Description arjan 2000-08-22 17:20:01 UTC

While trying to get tcpwrappers to work I found a sample config (inetd.conf.wrapped.sample) in /usr/ports/security/tcp_wrapper/files/. This shows for example /usr/local/libexec/tcpd fingerd -s. This config file is probably legacy from the old wrapper port when there was no internal tcpd support. Imho this config should be removed or replaced with something else.

Fix: 

remove legacy file from ports collection (inetd.conf.wrapped.sample) and update documentation if appropriate.
How-To-Repeat: see above

From-To: open->closed

From the port's Makefile: 

.if exists(/usr/include/tcpd.h) 
FORBIDDEN=      tcp_wrappers is in the base system 
.endif 

If anything, the port needs to be deleted, but it 
might be useful for RELENG_2_2 users.
