I can't determine if this is good or bad, so I figured I'd ask ya'll for your
advice.

I am running ip_masq, and everything is working fine, but a friend of mine
tried to telnet to the box and got a prompt.  Is this bad?  Is there a way I 
can allow ftp in and telnet in, but still keep it secure enough that I should
have no serious worries?  Is this info in the ipfwadm howto?  I looked and 
looked, but I think this is either obscure enough that there was nothing there,
or I am an idiot and asking a question with an obvious answer that I cannot 
see.

I know it is bad if someone were to be able to hack into one of the shell 
accounts and then su to root, but other than that?  Not to ask a question off
topic from ip_masq, but is there a way to disable the su command?

Thanks for the input.
