Did you try to use the browser based control panel in Freesco? It uses a cgi script and runs on port 82 I think.

Don't use telnet, use SSH. You can download SSH from www.ssh.com (http://www.ssh.com) or OpenSSH from www.openssh.com (http://www.openssh.com)

As for restricting directories, that depends on which directories you want restricted. One way would be to run a restricted shell. Another way would be to just change the permissions of the directories or files you don't want people to access.
