limit telnet connections from certain IP addresses

Is there a way to limit from which IP addresses HP-UX (10.20, 11.0) will accept telnet connections? Or better, from which IP addresses NOT to accept telnet connections.

Thanks

I notice that this message has gone into a Linux forum...

How do I control which forum it goes into?

Hi Geetam,
Couple files are involved in this.
.rhosts, /etc/hosts.equiv
If you decide to use netgroup then /etc/netgroup file.
man on hosts.equiv for format.
If you need more information let me know.


Good Luck.
