Your friend is seriously mistaken. tcp_wrappers works on only 
incoming service requests (that haven't already been blocked by 
iptables) and only for those applications that have been 
specifically configured to use tcp_wrappers.

tcp_wrappers uses the standard Unix/Linux system logging facility 
which stores the logs as normal editable text files. Md5sums or 
crc32 wouldn't protect agains tampering anyway, you need digital 
signatures for that.
