Hi everyone.

I am newb at solaris i have 2 question

1. i am finding a way to prevent separate users to telnet similar like /etc/ftpd/ftpusers in Solaris system

I know a way to disable user ftp by force user shell=/bin/false

2. or any program can do a chroot telnet user like proftpd

Thank you for reading men. Plz dicuss even we get no solution.

If you give a user a shell of /bin/false, this pretty much disables them from telneting. They can connect, but are instantly logged out. But if you put /bin/false into the file /etc/shells, they will still be able to use ftp. This is how I set up an ftp-only user. I then keep /bin/true out of /etc/shells, and I can set the shell to /bin/true to disable ftp as well.

Warning: if you are missing /etc/shells, the system behaves as if it exists and contains over a dozen entries. These are listed on the shells man page. Do not simply create a /etc/shells file with one line in it. You need to put in the default enties as well.

tien86, you should also take note of which Solaris OS version you're working on. Fyi

i am using Solaris 10 05-08 ... er i also get another problem with the Java Dialogs - can't type in Java Dialogs textbox

You have to administer services like ftp and telnet using svcadm in Solaris 10, as you might know.
btw, what java diaglog box are you talking about? can you kindly elaborate? Are you using Gnome or CDE?

Er it same problem both Gnome and CDE. I realize bug only does on rectangle textbox, textbox with bend corner not affected.

General this error has span for nearly a month.
