how to disable the FTP and telnet service in the system for a specific user

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

TCP wrappers, available at http://software.hp.com can let you disable these services by IP address.

If you are using the standard ftp server wu-ftpd you can control ftp access with the
/etc/ftpd configuration files.

Hi ,

/etc/ftpusers

/var/adm/inetd.sec

regards,
Sooraj

>/var/adm/inetd.sec

This will work only if ftp and telnet services are started from inetd. If those services were started as stand-alone servers, this will not work.

Best regards,
Horia.

The ftpusers file lists users for whom ftp login privileges are disallowed. Each ftpuser entry is a single line of the form:

name

where name is the user's login name.
