1. Login to shell as root and go to the /etc directory
# cd /etc
2. View the contents of this directory.
# ls -a
3. You should have two files, one named hosts.allow and the other hosts.deny. Open the hosts.deny file using your favorite editor (I prefer vi).
# vi hosts.deny
4. On a new line, put ALL:ALL. This will disable all access to your system, best form of defense. Save the file and exist (for more information on how to us vi, type 'man vi' at the command prompt).
5. To allow certain users access, edit the hosts.allow file by adding the user's IP address.

Ayksolutions Customer Reviews Prompt, professional, efficient. I am currently using a shared account and plan on upgrading to a dedicated server...eventually when traffic picks up. The Ayk team is quick to reply to any concerns and does the best they can to correct the situation. I strongly recommend them for hosting.
Good Cooperation The datacenter is very co-operating, and provides immediate response.
I have a two small shared hosting packages and the price I pay I don't expect to receive very good support. I accept with any shared hosting uptime cannot be guaranteed neither can it be 100% and anyone who suggests otherwise is living a dream. However on the occasions I have opened a ticket they have been answered and investigated promptly. I have been with ayksolutions.com since Jun/18/2008 oh wow where has the time gone!
