[cobalt-users] disabling telnet

["Jeremy Glick" <glickjd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got the following instructions from the knowledge base.  Now when it says 
disable for everyone except "root", does this mean I can't login as "admin" 
anymore?  The only way I know to get to root is to telnet in as admin and 
"su -".

Also, in the instructions, it tells me to change this line:

rm -f /etc/mtab~ /fastboot /etc/nologin /etc/locks/*

but I don't have that line in there.  The closest I have to it is:

rm -f /etc/mtab~ /fastboot /fsckoptions /forcefsck

Thanks,

Jeremy

 How do I disable telnet for everyone except root?

Create a file called /etc/nologin.

touch /etc/nologin

Then in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit,

Change

rm -f /etc/mtab~ /fastboot /etc/nologin /etc/locks/*

To

rm -f /etc/mtab~ /fastboot /etc/locks/*
