Security Basics: restricting telnet via username

restricting telnet via username

From: Gregory Dunlap <gtdunlap_at_midsouth.rr.com>

Hello all,
  I'm attempting to restrict a telnet session of a group of users who
need to run one application on a server. They login via telnet and that
is the only option at the moment. They need to run a shell script and
then that will launch the app. I've set the shell for these users to
the shell script so they won't have access to anything but this app. I
would like to restrict the telnet daemon further to allow only certain
user names so they can't do a brute force attack. In sshd_config I've
aways used allowd users setting but I don't see that in the hpux telnet
config. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg
