xinetd and hosts.allow

[Thomas Amwoza]

It makes it easier, to me anyhow, to specify everything in one file using
that syntax.  You can say ALLOW, or DENY in the third column and eliminate
the need for a separate hosts.deny file.  You can read more about it by
typing "man hosts_options" at a terminal prompt.
