Subject: Hosts.allow and Hosts.deny
I would keep hosts.deny;
ALL:ALL
Then, on your hosts.allow;
ALL: 192.168.0

If you want multiple net's on a line, seperate them by commas.
You might also want to specify just the services instead of ALL. remeber
to seperate those as well by commas;
ftpd, sshd, smbd, nmbd: 192.168.0.

Then, run 'tcpdchk'.

Hope this helps:
Mike
