Forgive me if this not strictly an ssh question...

I have a remote linux box w/CVS server that I connect to via SSH tunnel;
I would like to setup it up to deny any connection that is not via SSH tunnel.
I tried using the only_from paramter in xinetd.conf = 127.0.0.1 but I get
an cvs error[1]. I also tried just allowing the IP I'm connecting from but I
get the same error.

When connecting via SSH tunnel does the connection appear any different to
the dameon? Just tring to find a condition that I can isolate...

Any help?
