    Hello All,

    I have a list of physical IP addresses, to which I don't want them to use FTP function.

    Is anybody aware of how to do this in AIX?

    Thanks in advance.

    Sure. Use tcpwrapper.

    An easier way is to use the Allow and Deny clauses in the /etc/ftpaccess.ctl file. The documentation for this can be found using "man ftpd".
