[Techtalk] Security question

[mgmonza at faeroes.freeshell.org]

If I have hosts.deny set to all.paranoid and hosts.allow set like this:

ALL:  myid at myother.place.org
All:  321.12.123.333

(fake IP address there)

can attacks from outside get in to use ftp, ssh etc?  I thought not, but 
Firestarter's kinda scaring me with what's coming in.

Thanks for the help.
