First of all what shell are your users running? If they are not running
bash/ash/zsh /etc/profile doesn't get read at login. Tcsh and csh read
/etc/csh.login and /etc/csh.cshrc at login. The proper way to do it is to
turn off telnet in your /etc/inetd.conf (or equivalant). Just comment out
the telnet line in inetd.conf, then 'kill -HUP <inetd pid>'. That should
take care of all remote logins.
