Manual
tcpwrap_check(
string$daemon,
string$address,
[string$user],
[bool$nodns = false] ): bool
This function consults the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files to check if access to service daemon should be granted or denied for a client.
Parameters
- daemon
-
The service name.
- address
-
The client remote address. Can be either an IP address or a domain name.
- user
-
An optional user name.
- nodns
-
If address looks like domain name then DNS is used to resolve it to IP address; set nodns to true to avoid this.
Return Values
This function returns true if access should be granted, false otherwise.
