Hi

Your series of questions seem to indicate that you are going through a question paper.

If that it so then try searching the forum for answers.

J,

you can edit /etc/inetd.conf to comment out unwanted services run inetd -c to re-read or you can setup an inetd.sec file

man inetd.conf
man inetd.sec

should provide you with all necesary information.

Re: R-Services

thanks Bernhard I see how to apply your restrictions is there any other way to enhance this maybe closing ports in /etc/services ?

Re: R-Services

yes you can block related services in /etc/services also.

if you want to ristrit for selected ip's you can use /var/adm/inetd.sec file.

is it possible to use inetd.sec to allow specified users service and restrict all others ?
