Vincular y redirigir opciones
Los ficheros de configuración de servicios para el comando xinetd también soportan la vinculación del servicio a una
dirección IP y el desvío de las peticiones entrantes para dicho servicio a otra dirección IP, nombre de la máquina o
puerto.
La vinculación es controlada con la opción bind que se encuentra en el archivo de configuración específico del
servicio, y une específicamente el servicio a una dirección IP del sistema. Una vez configurada, la opción bind sólo
permite peticiones para la dirección IP apropiada para accesar el servicio. De esta forma se pueden vincular servicios
diferentes a interfaces de red diferentes basados en la necesidad.
Esto es útil sobre todo para los sistemas con múltiples adaptadores de red o con múltiples direcciones IP. En tales
sistemas, los servicios inseguros como Telnet, se pueden configurar de modo que solo escuche a la interfaz conectada
a una red privada, y no a la interfaz conectada a Internet.
QUESTION 102
Evitar que un usuario/s específico pueda hacer login.
En Redhat (RHEL)/Fedora core/Cent OS:

o
# usermod -s /bin/false login
En Solaris:
# usermod -s /usr/bin/false login
Que ningún usuario (excepto root) pueda hacer login.
Como root creamos el fichero /etc/nologin.
# touch /etc/nologin
Si lo deseamos, podemos redactar un mensaje en el fichero para que sea mostrado al usuario antes de que su conexión
sea rechazada.
