It is always a rish to run services on a public network... But it is
necesary too :-) ... I would look at tcp wrappers and configured
/etc/inetd.conf (man for help), and also two files /etc/hosts.deny &
/etc/hosts.allow -- I have one thing, allow overrides deny, so ALL: ALL
setting in deny doesn't neceserily mean that no user could remotly
connect to the machine -- that is why we have hosts.allow :-). Some FTP
deamonst create their own password file, so I believe that if the users
are properly sorted, marked, etc., it should give enough flexibility to
set boundaries by the group or owner number.
Another would be static IP and VPN....Good luck with that too ;-)
