	Yes, that's the best answer of all.  :-)

	Someone should modify telnet to do encryption.  All the hooks
are there in the protocol spec.  It seems kinda hokey to have a program
that does almost exactly what telnet does, but isn't telnet and doesn't
use the telnet protocol.

Have fun (if at all possible),
