RE: [cobalt-users] telnet access to users?

[Jeff Lasman <jblists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Which is why the default ftp server installation that comes with Red Hat 
Linux (not the RaQ) comes with a copy of ls, and other commands, in a dummy 
directory, in the anonymous ftp area.

But that's easily overcome either with a shell that already has those 
programs installed and doesn't need to call them externally (as in the ftp 
server installation included in the RaQs), or to have a dummy directory 
with the necessary files.

Now, however, we're talking about true virtual servers, which is well 
beyond the scope of this mailing list <smile>.
