Enable tcpwrapper on solaris10

- on solaris 10, ssh, sendmail and rcpbind was tcpwrapper enabled by default
if there's no hosts.allow/deny files, it will grant access by default to all

-To enable TCP Wrappers support for inetd-based services, you can simply use the following commands:

# inetadm -M tcp_wrappers=true
# svcadm refresh inetd

# inetadm -l telnet | grep tcp_wrappers

- you can also use svccfg to enable inetd based services.
# svccfg -s inetd setprop defaults/tcp_wrappers=true
# svcadm refresh inetd
