TCP/IP systems which I have with Telnet, with no ssh that I know of: Amiga running AmigaDOS Amiga running SVR3.2 TI 99/4A 640K PC DOS running KA9Q 512K PC DOS running CMU TCP/IP Commodore 64 Altos 286 Xenix Xenix 386 + Lachman TCP/IP Windows for WorkGroups 3.11 I have other systems that have no ssh, which I could probably port it to (no JVM version, though), but which I'm unwilling to do, since it would just support some other weenie who wanted to deprecate telnet for no provable security gain, other than security through obscurity on eavesdropping, which is no problem to do on a fully compromised network.
