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? - a.
