Setup your /etc/node.perms file for known users, an example is in
./ax25-utils-2.1.42*/etc/oh7lzb/ax25
You could also attach the login process to another port for telnet access
via /etc/inetd.conf a good port is 24, but keep it to yourself and your
known friends.
You could use the following.
/etc/services
ted 24/tcp # Allow telnets on this port.
/etc/inetd.conf
ted stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd
kill -HUP pidof inetd
A user then would do from his console.
telnet ve1drg 24
That way known trusted users could access your machine and use there
accounts.
