I've got LOTS of questions on this topic! <smile>

On a Ra3, how about for SSH access?  I have all vsites shell
access disabled, but is there a way to totally disable
Telnet but allow SSH only?


Of course.


Although I'm still very green in this department I'm going
to guess the answer is "no" since SSH is still shell access,
no matter what color the horse it's painted.  If I'm wrong
on this, please correct me!
Turn off the telnet daemon. Turn off the code that turns it on when you reboot.
Ignore my previous post about how to switch shells. You need to have the "bash" shell to use SSH. 


Also -- which ssh mode(?) is more secure, SSH1 or SSH2?


SSH2; I've just NEVER found a good implimentation of it.


I use SecureCRT but I'm not sure which option would be best
or what the difference is between ssh1 or ssh2.  In the
preferences for a SSH2 connection there's two DataFellows
version.  Which one should I be using -- 2.0.13 or 2.0.12??


No idea.  I use Tera Term with SSH1.
