Am I actually reading this on a security list of all places ???? Are you actually suggesting the user use something that sends data over the wire such as the username, and password in clear text usable ?? Doesnt the thought of this scare you??? you telnet to remote system, someone bewtween you and remote system, say at your ISP is sniffing the wire for whatever reason, as your logging into the remote box, and guess what, now they have your access to that same box. Dont use telnet, it is very insecure, use ssh where everything is encrypted!! On Thu, 2002-03-28 at 16:33, Adam wrote: > I would highly suggest that you use telnet.
