Does anyone know how to set up telnetd so only a couple of users can use

Looks like pam_listfiles can do this...

That's exactly what I was looking for, but it seems that there is no way
to make pam differentiate between login by telnet, and logins at the
console, and other uses of /bin/login. Rats.

How about using something like:

in.telnetd: ALL: checkscript

with "checkscript" being a script that checks "%c" for [EMAIL PROTECTED], and if the check fails to match your user, the user is booted off.

Of course, this is with just a quick look at "man hosts_access", and with minimal understanding of the whole tcp wrappers stuff, so I may be suggesting apples based on an orange understanding.
