Everybody keeps repeating this like a mantra, but it's ignoring the fact
that somewhere you have to have a default policy.
How about this. If they use the "Simple" (or whatever it's called) option
in sysinstall, then they are presented with a
[X] Enable telnet
option at some point in the install process.
If they use the other two install options, they get a
[ ] Enable telnet
option instead.
I'll even provide the code if it'll shut people up.
