openssh unix dev - Sep 2003 - problem with configure in openssh-3.7p1

Problem: setting --with-tcpwrappers does not configure code to be compiled
with wrapper support

Solution: references to with_tcp_wrappers (lines 4975, 6396, 6397) need to
be changed to with_tcpwrappers

Dave,

With 3.7.1p1 and 3.6.1p2, tcp_wrappers works without making the changes
you suggested below. I have the following line in my configure script:

--with-tcp-wrappers=$SRC/tcp_wrappers_7.6-ipv6.1_sol8_build

I then create the appropriate /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny and
everything works fine.

I don't think so.  The existing usage corresponds to both configure's
help
and the comments in the INSTALL file.  What makes you think you should use
"--with-tcpwrappers"?

$ ./configure --help |grep wrapper
  --with-tcp-wrappers[=PATH]      Enable tcpwrappers support
$ grep wrapper INSTALL
--with-tcp-wrappers will enable TCP Wrappers (/etc/hosts.allow|deny)
