hi ya Mike
setup /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny
cat /etc/hosts.deny
# turn everything off
ALL: ALL
cat /etc/hosts.allow
# allow only your ip# to telnet in
in.telnetd: 192.168.1.1 10.0.1.1
restart inetd for those changes to take effect
-- taking out in.telnetd in /etc/inetd.conf will deny all telnet
connections
-- enter the ip# of those allowed to ssh into your server
in the ssh config files
- cant prevent people from looking in /etc...
- use "jail" or equivalent if thats an issue
( nothing to hide in etc )
c ya
