<br>put that environment in a vm (so it can be dumped and recreated quickly) and chroot the user environment for the telnet process. run selinux in full mls mode and set the user context at login to mate with the app context and disallow everything else (i.e. the game user can only run the game code and exit from the shell).<br>

Guys,<br>
<br>
This is a bit of old school, I got a group of buddies that want to do<br>
some RPG, for you young kids that Role Playing Games, One of my<br>
buddies asked is there a way I could set up a pick your own path game<br>
for as he over sea wants to do a bit solo playing.<br>
<br>
OK where I need some input. I like to set up a app to be able to run<br>
so that he can use telnet to get to. I like to also jail the app to<br>
make it secure.<br>
<br>
Yes, I know. Text Base Pick your Path are very very old school. But me<br>
any my buddies are from back in the days of Scott Adams Adventures. I<br>
am loving this because they ask me to dust off a couple Tunnels and<br>
Trolls Pocket games that I wrote in basic ( NOT V. Basic, but the real<br>
Basic remember 10 Print 20 goto ) that I am covering to bash, but<br>
looking and putting into mysql with python.)<br>
<br>
Anyway, I know I can set it up as service and a uniq port. What I am<br>
lost how is my friend Bod, does this...<br>
<br>
telnet <a href="http://mybox.com" target="_blank">mybox.com</a> 9866<br>
<br>
<br>
That the app will start. I firgure that there a couple ppl on the list<br>
that might know how.<br>
<br>
It not as simple as when I ran a BBS.<br>
<br>
Thanks for any you can give this old geek. I am also helping my<br>
buddies, but rest up my MUD and Crossfire.<br>
