host.allow entry for example-demon.c and libwrap/tcp_wrappers?

 (Sorry in advance if this has been covered - I don't seem to be able to
find the answer on the list or faq)

 

I have compiled the agentx example-demon.c up and have been successful in
accessing data from it using the example in the tutorial
(http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/toolkit/demon/index.htm
l)

 

This ONLY works if I use "ALL: ALL" in hosts.allow (or if I don't have an
entry in hosts.deny).

 

I obviously, wouldn't want to run with ALL: ALL if I can avoid it.

 

I have tried a number of service names (snmp, snmpd, example-demon) in
/etc/hosts.allow to specific the demon .but if fails each time.

 

I'm using Centos42 which is the same as RHEL42 and net-snmp 5.1.2.

Can anybody assist me with the correct entry for /etc/hosts.allow?

 

 

Thanks
