actually, you should also make sure the hp data protector server (which
in this case Im assuming is called omni) uses the tcp wrappers.

type ldd <fullly patthed server executable> and make sure that
libwrap.so is in the list.  If it isn't then tcp wrappers won't work,
and you will have to use iptables.

If I wanted to do something similar to what youre doing, but for ssh,
I'd edit only /etc/hosts.deny with the following information:

sshd: ALL EXCEPT backup1
