Hello Theodore,
/bin/bash --> the "Bourne Again SHell" which is the linux standard
shell. These users have telnet access enabled.
/bin/badsh --> "BAD SHell", which runs a quick script displaying an
UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS message, then boots them off the
server. These users have telnet access disabled.
