Hi, Can someone tell me how can I restrict 110 port access other than my IP block? if it through tcp-wrapper then how can i do that?
i would do it with netfilter/iptables (assuming you're on linux, with a recent enough distribution. Under bsd, use ipfilter, it's similar)
I'd probably use xinetd option "only_from" to achieve the same effect.
Not least because xinetd offers other options to control (and in particular to prevent run away) resource usage.
But then the server here is behind a firewall, so I had to open that to allow access.
