Essentially we want only a few users telnet access to the Cisco yet still allow
the script users their method of access. I have looked through the archive some
but really I don't know the best way to search for this issue.  Are we
approaching this correctly by utilizing check items? 

You will have to look at the trace 4 packet dumps of the relevant radius
request packets to see what (if anything) is different between the various
requests. You may find that seperate Handlers for the different classes of user
is a better approach rather than a single users file. You might also consider
having your administrative users log in with a special realm, such as
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (perhaps in conjunction with our RadKey product or
something similar).
