If I'm not mistaking and If you only have telnet enabled you can simply '*' disable the account for the user[s] you want to restrict access to in /etc/passwd file. ie - user:*:xxxx:xxxx:UserName,,,:/home/user:/bin/bash
^ which *should* still let users ftp in and deny telnet sessions... If have your users login via ssh then 'sshd_config' file must be edited to have something like : ----sshd_config------- <snip> DenyUsers guest1 guest2 guest3 etc... <snip> ----eof--------------- cheers, xbud ----------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I only drink to make other people interesting." ----------------------------- On Tue, 13 Mar 2001, Kenneth Pronovici wrote: > Hello - > > I'm not sure exactly where to look for this information, so if I should > RTFM, just point me toward the right one. > > I have a situation where I've volunteered to host a few webpages for > some users.
