How do I get spawn and twist options to work in hosts.deny(allow)

[mike c <mchase at centellax dot com>]

Hi,

 

I have the cygwin sshd daemon installed and running on my machine.
I have edited the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files to use tcp wrappers. 
I can get the daemon to recognize the process, the client-list and to 
either deny or allow access to sshd depending on the client-list rules 
in the file. The daemon seems to recognize the key words like ALL, EXCEPT,
deny and allow. However, I canât get it to recognize options like spawn 
and twist. For example I would Like to generate log entries in a file 
that differ depending on which rule gets triggered.I try to use spawn 
to cat a message to a file. However, when the rule is triggered, such 
as the denial of an IP address I can seem to get spawn to spawn anything. 
The target file remains empty.

 

Any suggestions on how to debug this.

 

Thanks,

Mike C
