I have a need to prevent certain clients, who need FTP access, from
telneting into the machines on my network. 

I have been using /etc/login.access to prohibit those users, but it is a
hassle to add an entry in every machine on the network.

Have also tried to add those users to a NIS'ed group and added the
@groupname to login.access. Login.access must only look at the user's GID,
not the group file, or the NIS map for group.

Is there a method for NIS'ifying the login.access file or a better method
to allow ftp access but not shell access.

Peace,
Blake
