The scenario we are talking abut is not just scoped  because the user is disabled.  The reason the user is disabled is because they are logging onto the BBS and causing problems.  To remedy this, the Sysop disables the user account.  Because the user is crafty, they switched from using telnet to SSH and bypassed this security measure.  Why would this be any different on any other Synchronet BBS?  That’s what drove my reasoning behind the scope remark.
