ORIGINAL QUESTION:
I installed hp-ux ssh to replace telnet and it's
running fine. My question is how to allow only IP
range 198.152.*.* to access the SSH and restrict other
IPs. Since HP-UX ssh is running its own daemon
(/opt/ssh/sbin/sshd) and not using ‘inetd’, put the
restriction in ‘inetd.sec’ won’t help. Thanks you for
your help.

SOLUTION:
This is from Jorge Fábregas:
You need to run the ssh daemon thru inetd. Do the
following:
1- Stop the ssh daemon
2- Make sure it won't start on machine startup by
editing /etc/rc.config.d/sshd
   Change SSHD_START=1 to 0
3- Modify /etc/inetd.conf to enable ssh. You must use
the "-i" switch in order to allow it to run thru
inetd. I have the following line on my inetd.conf
ssh stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/sshd sshd -i
4- Modify /var/adm/inetd.sec accordingly. Something
like: ssh allow 172.16.0.10
etc...
Now you can get the ip filtering benefits provided by
inetd. Of course, this is one scenario. You can still
use IPFILTER if you want (and keep running SSHD
stand-alone).
-----------------------------------------------------
Use tcp wrappers with /etc/hosts.deny, /etc/hosts.allow.
