Alternative to /etc/hosts/allow on CentOS8
by elliot01 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4SKRT)
Hi all,
What's the alternative to using /etc/hosts.allow under RHEL/CentOS 8?
A little research indicates that hosts.{allow,denied} files are obsolete. The same articles seem to suggest using firewalld instead.
My issue is that we don't run firewalld on any of our RHEL/CentOS systems, so am unable to use that. Is there a simpler alternative, similar to how hosts.allow worked?
Thank you!
