- Yes. We need to be able to do the following things:
-
- Allow or deny access on a per-port or per account basis (for example,
- disable ttyM025 and user3... we have this, but it's not
- very clean and quite inconsistent for the per-port stuff).
- Allow or deny access on a scheduled basis (only allow backup to log
- in from 2AM through 10AM, all others are kept off from 2AM
- through 6AM).
- Allow or deny access to port/account combinations (for example,
- ttyM020 only allows user1 and user2 on, all others get
- "permission denied", root and backup can only log in to
- console or ttyf01, and "telnet" can't log in on any network
- ports).
- And other combinations (allow user1 on ttyM020 from 5PM through 8AM
- and all day weekends).
