Description

TCP/IP command. Consult the TCP wrapper configuration (in /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny); display a list of all possible problems with it; attempt to suggest possible fixes.

Options

-a

Include a list of rules; do not require an ALLOW keyword before allowing sites to access the local host.

-i conf-file

Specify location of inetd.conf or tlid.conf file. These are files that tcpdchk automatically uses in its evaluation of TCP wrapper files.

Verbose mode.
