I'm not sure if this might adversely affect some system utilities, but you could try commenting out the "telnetd" line of your /etc/inetd.conf file. That would make the inetd server think you don't have the telnet daemon program, so it would start up telnet, disabling logins.] --Ludwig Pummer ----------------------------------------------------------------- ludwigp@sns.com http://chipweb.home.ml.org http://www.sns.com/~ludwigp <--^-- Updated 11/22/96 PGP Key & Geek Code available on web page
