there may be a cleaner/more proper way. but what i do is change the "TNTKEY: Extra key required for telnet access to worldgroup" to SYSOP under Worldgroup Security and Accounting --> Telnet Server. If you want, you can also change (one-time) the two textblocks that could be displayed when people are denied. They are RMEMONL (Under Core Textblocks) and TNTCANT (Under Telnet Server) in the Worldgroup Textblock Editor (Start --> Settings --> Worldgroup Server --> Edit Text Blocks). This way only SYSOPS can telnet in. Alternatively, you could define a different key and give that key to the users/classes you want to log on.
