RE: [cobalt-users] telnet access to users?

Isn't this what SSH is for..?  What's the real purpose of SSH?  I've not yet
used it in any way, on any machine...  I understood it to be used as a safer
connection to telnet sessions..(?)

That is *exactly* the purpose of SSH. Don't allow telnet access, go with SSH instead.
