Hello, I am going to replace some twinax green screen AS400 terminals with tn5250 under Debian Stable. Tn5250 is great, and this is a good way for me to recycle some "obsolete" PCs. Are there any "shell escapes" or any other way the user could break out of tn5250 and execute external commands? I want it locked down as much as possible because my users will mess with it, and they only need access to the AS400, not the Linux environment. I have Debian locked down pretty good, I'm just concerned about the actual tn5250 program itself. I have tn5250 set to run with su in /etc/inittab and all gettys disabled, and I can logon remotely with ssh - the monitor shows nothing but the AS400 logon, hit Ctrl-Q to quit and init takes care of running tn5250 again. Thanks, Josh
