Do you have 
tcp_wrappers=YES
in your vsftpd.conf?

I have /etc/hosts.allow that has no entries. I have /etc/hosts.deny that

ALL: 219.106.229.178
ALL: 72.129.200.46
ALL: 200.38.
ALL: 64.182.

>From my readings, I should not be getting any messages from 200.38.x.x, yet
my /var/log/messages shows:
Mar 28 10:50:36 helmethouse vsftpd(pam_unix)[23790]: check pass; user
unknown
Mar 28 10:50:36 helmethouse vsftpd(pam_unix)[23790]: authentication failure;
log

unknown
Mar 28 10:50:40 helmethouse vsftpd(pam_unix)[23790]: authentication failure;

log
name= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost=200.38.16.6

And keeps going with a new entry every few seconds.

Is /etc/hosts.deny properly set up?
Is /etc/hosts.deny immediately active or must some service be restarted to 
make it go?
Does vsftpd bypass /etc/hosts.deny?

Thanks!
