Subject: How to secure telnet?
I have a server for shell accounts, and up to now the only way people have
been able to access it is via SSH. One of the users is leaving for a
year-long, round-the-world jaunt.
SSH is pretty much out of the question for him -- if he can find an internet
cafe in some of the places he's going, he won't be able to install new
software, it would probably take years just to download a client over a 56K
link, etc. etc.
I'd like to support him by making telnet available to him. Any thoughts on
the best/most secure way to do this?
