[CentOS] Does anyone use tcp wrappers (hosts.allow/hosts.deny) anymore?

Whoops your M$ heritage is showing.
On Linux "per-user" values are usually stored in individual
configuration files located in their users' ~ (/home/) directories - not
in a single, fragile and all-embracing nightmare called The Windoze
Registry.
Linux is much more logical and user-friendly. Hence the existence of
simple configuration files capable of containing copious configuration
hints and explanations - something omitted from the XML monstrosity.

Centos is like a hot sunny day - a true joy to experience.
