[olug] hosts.allow file

[CM Miller]

Talking with my Unix/Linux teacher and asked him a
question about trying to log into my two linux boxes
on my network so I could get at files on each of the
machines.  

He claims you have to edit /etc/hosts.allow and put in
the other machines' IP address 

#
#
#Example

ALL : 168.192.1.101

Will this work?  

And what is the best protocol to use?  SSL, ftp,
telnet, or is there something that only pertains to
Linux? 

thanks,

-Chris
