Summary: How 'bout "unaxcess" (Re: Need MINIX uucp and bbs.)


Sorry to post this but my mailer bounced my original response.

It sounds like "unaxcess" (I believe that's the correct spelling anyway)
is really what you want. I understand that it's actually a unix based
bbs that runs as a special shell on many types of unix machines. When the
dial-up user responds to "login:" with "ua" and give the correct passwd
they are logged in under the ua shell. This is very similar to the way
uucp works. Under this shell though I think there is then another login 
prompt to get into the ua files and services. 

This seem fairly secure to me but you'd be better off asking someone who
runs this kind of bbs. There was a discussion of this on comp.sources
and/or comp.unix.sources about a week ago. This is a pd or shareware type
program and souces have been posted to the net. The author also runs a bbs
using the same program.

I obviously don't run anything like this myself so if you're interested
in finding out more try one of the sources groups not me.

Once again, sorry for posting this but I thought it might be helpful.
