	Maybe a funny question but what does your hosts.deny file contain?
If you want to block out only those hosts you want to allow you should
have "ALL:ALL" in your hosts.deny file... also I don't know if the tcp
wrappers like reading the lines seperated like you have them shown... I've
not tried that... and if "ftpd:" doesn't work... try "in.ftpd:" since that
is the actual daemon name...
