Why bother? If you have ssh, what would you need telnet for? On Wednesday 08 May 2002 01:40 am, support@ufos-gmbh.de wrote:

Hi all,

I implemented a telnet proxy by using the portforwarding feature from openssh.

This gives you the advantage that you do not have to forward packets on your firewall and some graet authentication schemes.

with best regards,

Hi all,

has anybody ever heard of a telnet-proxy? Checkpoints Firewall-1 offers this kind of functionality:

You connect to the firewall on port 23, firewall asks for authentification and a hostname and afterwards you get a transparent telnet session to the named host, without any intererence by the firewall.

Is something like that available as open source software?

Thanks a lot,

Martin
