Disabling telnet or ssh access to the Digi CM config menu or command line. Disabling telnet or ssh access to the Digi CM config menu or command line.

Modify '/etc/inetd.conf' and comment out or delete the telnet/ssh service.

cp '/etc/inetd.conf' to '/usr2/inetd.conf'

Add the following commands in the '/usr2/rc.user' script. Add these commands just above "exit 0":

cp -a /usr2/inetd.conf /etc/inetd.conf
while killall inetd 2>/dev/null;
do sleep 1;
done
/usr/sbin/inetd

reboot

**WARNING: Disabling both telnet and ssh will then only allow access to the Digi CM through the console port or WEB UI.

If you factory default the unit, the '/usr2/rc.user' script file is moved to '/usr2/rc.user.old#' and the default rc.user file will be restored.
