Hello

If your requirement is to give users a restricted shell, then perhaps
you could consider ditching telnet, and using ssh and rssh? rssh
describes itself as a "restricted shell for scp/sftp" but is not
limited to those commands and can be configured to allow various
commands to be run. Just a thought; feel free to ignore. :)
