Hello: I am trying to set up a few accounts on my neXT, but I have been experiencing some newbie like problems, which I hope some kind-souled person will help me with. 1. I want to set up an account that runs only one program, then logs the user out of the NeXT upon exiting the program. I would like to make it impossible to <control><z> the process. I do not want to allow this user to be able to suspend or stop the process, relegate it to the background, etc. 2. I tried setting up a gopher-client only account for telnet users or dial in users. I set up my services thusly: gclient 4200/tcp I then set up my inetd.conf like this: gclient stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/gopher gopher When I try to telnet to this port this is what happens: Connected to trans.csuohio.edu. Escape character is '^]'. I don't understand your terminal type Connection closed by foreign host. Anyone know what is going on here? Can you shed some light on this matter? I would like to provide a friendly user-environment without running security risks everytime somebody logs on. thanks for the advice .... I appreciate it! Joe cowboy@trans.csuohio.edu
