How to IP ban for vsftpd

Hi everyone.
I have a problem with vsftpd

I want to block IP for vsftpd. I installed debian in virtualbox.
for block I tried /etc/hosts.deny but still there is problem.

How can I block in /etc/hosts.deny ?

Cheleby,
I don't believe that hosts.deny is enabled by default. Check your vsftpd.conf to see if hosts.deny is enabled.

I checked to vsftpd.conf but I didn' see hosts.deny in that.

Cheleby,
add the hostname or ipaddress to the /etc/hosts.deny file.

I added but not working. I tried :

vsftpd : 192.x.x.x
192.x.x.x

You more than likely will need to restart your networking.
/etc/init.d/network restart
Might even want to restart vsftpd also.
