Re: [cobalt-developers] /var/log/messages process every 15 minutes

Thanks, I turned off telnet. I was told in the past that if you turned off 
telnet then ssh would also be shut down. However let it be know you are 
correct you can shut down telnet services and still run ssh. Thank you for 
your help. You saved me from a Hack I am sure...
