Adrian, I'm sorry, "to the man with a hammer everything appears a nail." My solution does not address your telnet problem. We recently fixed a chroot problem with ftp, and not telnet. My mistake. We never allow any telnet access to our system for the general customer, so the telnet part of your message didn't register. There was an 'rsh' or restricted shell a while back... I don't see it on our recent systems though. Trial and error using .profile, .login, .cshrc, or globals for csh shell, /etc/csh.cshrc /etc/.csh.login might help. -Alex Adrian T.
