Hi Purush,
The command "busy-message" is for VTY lines and "refuse-message" is for
TTY lines.
Neither the config guide nor the command reference are crystal clear -
you have to read between the lines. The description for "busy-message"
specifically uses the word "telnet" and that for "refuse-message" does
not.

Below is an example of "refuse-message" on my 2511 access server. I have
a live reverse telnet session already open on line 3 and when I try
connecting again the refuse message is displayed.

On router R1 -->
Ip host R2 172.16.123.2
!
busy-message R2 ^C
Sorry, the line is busy
^C
!
line vty 0 4
no login
refuse-message ^C
This is a test for refuse message
^C
!
End
I tried opening 5 telnet sessions from R2.
The 6th one should have spelt out my 'refuse-message'. But it didn't. I
just
got the standard message "connection refused by remote host".
Wondering, how I am supposed to configure and use the "refuse-message"
feature.
(Note - The busy-message works fine. No problem. It's the refuse-message
I
am having problem with. The busy-message question was posted by someone
else. Not me).

Yes, when used with the Name versus IP, it works.
Does any one know how the "refuse-message" command work ?
It doesn't do anything when I tried.
I must be doing something wrong.

I guess you must always apply a name to an ip-host prior and telnet via
the
name..... Seems to work

I am going insane trying to get the router to take this command... What
is
the proper syntax to have the router diplay a message if a telnet
fails? I have read the doc. But I am doing something incorrect :(
