Chris,
I'm not reading slashdot, but the normal way to see if the sshd is
compiled with tcp_wrapper support, you simply need to check to see if
the library was linked to it....
Try:
ldd /usr/sbin/sshd
Then look for a line that includes or references "libwrap.so". If that
line is there, then, yes, your sshd is compiled with libwrap support.
I'm on FC4, but my line looks like:
> libwrap.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwrap.so.0 (0x00616000)
Now, perhaps it is the line you are putting in to /etc/hosts.{allow,deny}....
