edit /etc/passwd and make the shell field (the last field on a line) to something
like /bin/false or something on thoz lines. this will allow u're users to ftp
thru their home dir, but block telnet. U may consider anonymous access. anyway
ftping files in, when u cant access thru a telnet doesn't make much of a sense,
unless u're serving a webserver, where u're users could put their pages in...
