Yes sure it is possible.... I did it on my machine with some of the users. I made a "shell" in which they had just some options like changing the password, traceroute and ping. I made that script and run VIPW to change their shells to the script.... I pasted you my script in the mail, I use a similar script at my work for all customers (ISP). Hope it helps you and you can use it (in vipw you should edit for the users you want to have just such shell you should set as shell /usr/local/bin/menu) Michel <script> 1) /usr/local/bin/menu #!/bin/sh #!/bin/csh -f cd /tmp TERM=`echo $TERM|/usr/bin/tr -dc '[A-Z][a-z][0-9]_-'` export TERM exec /usr/local/bin/menu.csh done 2) /usr/local/bin/menu.csh #!/bin/csh -f limit cputime 5m #ulimit -t 300 exec /usr/local/bin/menu2 3) /usr/local/bin/menu2 #!/bin/sh stty sane ulimit -t 300 PATH=/usr/local/bin export PATH while : do echo ' ====================================== 1) change password 2) check connection 3) traceroute to altavista q) quit > ' read ans case $ans in 1) /usr/bin/passwd ;; 2) /sbin/ping -c 1 support.euronet.nl ;; 3) /usr/sbin/traceroute www.altavista.com ;; [qQ]) echo '' ; exit 0 ;; esac done </script> At 12:06 AM 4/12/99 +0800, you wrote: >Hi, > >I will like to know if it is possible to restrict certain accounts from >being able to access the machine via telnet ? > >Thanks. > >Regards, >Seng Yip > > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message Michel Quadflieg Overtoom 31-1hg 1054 HB Amsterdam Tel :+31 654 780 923 E-mail: michel@quadspeed.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
