Hi

Is it possible to remove the timeout when a user log's in using telnet? I
have some terminal servers that connect to my host using telnet, and I
don't want the session to crash when nobody logs in so that I have to
start telnet again... is that possible?

Another question: is it possible to give the user a 'clear screen' firt
before presenting them the login prompt? (What option do I have to setup
in the gettytab?)

And; is it possible to set up a port on my mashine where users can login
using the normal login method, but that they get another shell than
specified in their passwd-entry, especially passwd?

And; does anyone have a www-password-change program?

Thank you,
Paul
