Then you use pmconsole, pmcommand, pmvision. Or set up a pm 25 connected
to the console ports of all your many pm 3's and use it as a revers term
server and attach right to the s0 port and get in.

OR just do what you are SUPPOSED to do to guard against a D.O.S. attack
and use filters. Have you tried setting a permit 23 from only 1 host, deny
from all others, then tried to bomb the unit?
