OK, let's not go through this yet one more time.. alright? For most cases, anything less than SSH is asking for trouble. There *are* some cases, though, when telnet is acceptable (properly protected LAN's), and there are even some cases when telnet is the only really acceptable way - and yes, I've heard about all kinds of SSH clients, including Java ones, web-based ones, etc.. but still, there are cases when one simply has to use telnet, period. G'luck, Peter -- You have, of course, just begun reading the sentence that you have just finished reading. On Fri, Aug 17, 2001 at 02:00:26PM +0200, Carroll, D.
