   Hi Joseph!

    JL> I want to run my board on port 23, but I keep getting unwanted   
    JL> connections to it. Mostly from Chinese hackers, I presume. Anyone know   
    JL> a way to solve this, with iptables or the like?   
      
   That is the reality of todays Internet.   
   Learn to live with it, and use good passwords.   
      
   Best is to abandon telnet altogether and switch to SSH.
