I hate ftp, so I never run any daemons on my box.  I have one app that
can 
only export to the web via ftp however, so I'm thinking of putting an
ftpd 
on one of my boxes.  I on;y want to allow connections from that one box 
however.

A friend mentioned that I should look into just setting up hosts.allow
and 
.deny properly, so I'm going to head down that path.

I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has these kind of rules already 
set up though, or if there are better suggestions.
