Open the /etc/inetd.conf file in an editor of your choice. Search for the line that contains info for the telnet services. Comment that line out (by inserting a '#' as the very first character of that line). Then run this command:
Code:
pkill -HUP inetd

Note that you have to be root to do this.

Allow telnet in AIX from specific IP adds, but disable for everyone else

I need to change the security on our AIX servers and disable telnet from all but certain IP addresses. I have hashed the telnet line in /etc/inetd.conf and added filter rules for those IP adds to allow access on port 23, but this didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks. (2 Replies)
