Is there a way to disable a TELNET login by a super user? That is, require users to su.

In TINI 1.0 and later, you can disable root access via TELNET by setting the environment variable TELNET_ALLOW_ROOT to be false: 

setenv TELNET_ALLOW_ROOT false
If you issue this command from the slush command line, it will only be in effect until the next time the TINI is rebooted. If you want to make this setting persistent across reboots, add it to the /etc/.startup file.
