Hi ,

Thanks guys , who responded with my earlier Q "Cant log in remotely as
ROOT"

Now that ssh is a secure way of logging in , how to deny telnet access to
the system remotely.

As ssh uses port 22 and telnet uses port 23 , do I just need to disable
port 23.


Pls advice as to is this a good/right way of doing it.



Thanks
Rakesh
