I would like to get a similar functionality as for netgroups - i.e. who can login where and from where using which mechanism.
HBAC only offers possibility to control who can login where, I suppose, right?

If I wanted to also control the from where and which mechanism (i.e. ssh/telnet/nfs) then only netgroups will help me right?

Thanks,
Ondrej
