The NOINTERACTIVE or the PASSALL only has to with data interpretations.

To prevent the USERNAME: prompt and disallow logins on a port use:

$ SET TERM/NOTYPE_AHEAD

This works because the type ahead buffer is not enabled, so the first 
to initiate a login will never be seen because there is not an outstanding
read posted on that port.
