+.SH TCP_WRAPPERS SUPPORT
+This
+.B rpc.mountd
+version is protected by the
+.B tcp_wrapper
+library. You have to give the clients access to
+.B rpc.mountd
+if they should be allowed to use it. To allow connects from clients of
+the .bar.com domain you could use the following line in /etc/hosts.allow:
+
+mountd: .bar.com
+
+You have to use the daemon name 
+.B mountd
+for the daemon name (even if the binary has a different name). For the
+client names you can only use the keyword ALL or IP addresses (NOT
+host or domain names).
+
+For further information please have a look at the
+.BR tcpd (8),
+.BR hosts_allow (5)
+and
+.BR hosts_access (5)
+manual pages.
