tcp_wrappers will do the trick nicely. The software allows you to limit IP access based on service. I believe it comes standard with SCO but if not, it is available from ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/pub/security/index.html complete with documentation.

Try searching your man pages for "wrapper".

I'd give more details but it's been so long since I've used them. I hope this starts it.

Use IP Filter to block all IP addresses on port 23 (default telnet port) except specified one

paki boy..... :cool:
i m also using SCO unix...
