My old FreeBSD box was setup in the old days to put out a telnet prompt of
Username and
I modified it to not let logins in from other than a couple of internet
addresses from work.
Took about 15 minutes to modify /bin/login and the gettytab and telnetd
files.
I loved looking at the logs.
If I had a captive DCL environment chrooted I'd have let them in. 8-)
I redirected the telnet and ssh to it from my firewall.
The only external login that would work was an ssh on an unusual port.

I dunno, maybe I should just turn the ident off and let them

my older version of SuSE, though one of those stupid things means I can't
add attachments to my own email messages through my own email

If you make it look like IIS, they'll probably pound it even more. --
