Only for services that are linked against libwrap.

See 'man hosts_access(5)' for more information:

This manual page describes a simple access control language that is
based on client (host name/address, user name), and server (process
name, host name/address) patterns.

My reading on TCP Wrappers suggests that Firebird can already support
TCP Wrappers since this functionality can be added via configuration
changes to the inetd and xinetd services.

The configuration changes ensure that TCP Wrappers are applied to all
server services, including Firebird.
