How do I deny certain users from certain IP's to telnet into system
- Thread starter zelco

You can install IPsec for AiX and set firewall rules to drop SYN packets from unwanted IP-s (to local port 20 and 21)
Even though it might be a better idea to deny telnet adn ftp, and provide only ssh and scp/sftp services (if you are allowed to make such a decision).

There is 3 simple way:
1) ask your network manager stuff to establish such rules in your network equipment (routers, firewalls, etc)
2) ask someone to do it for you on your AiX host
3) deny solving the problem
Well, you can enter some lines in the /etc/profile to check patterns of unwanted IP-s and execute an "exit" command if matches found.
