I guess I am asking are the tcp wrappers enabled in the default base 
system?  If the wrappers are not enabled, do I need to build world with 
some special compile option?

Or build ssh from the port?  If the port is used do I then need to 
reconfigure anything in the system to use the port version instead of the 
base system ssh?

Thanks for your help.
