There have been a variety of vulnerabilities in telnetd as well, so you should think twice if you don't have absolute trust in your users.


I am hoping that "yum install telnetd" is going to give me something safe.

For our VAX? Oh boy...


telnetd probably doesn't have too many eyeballs, so I wouldn't be too confident about it really. Whatever eyeballs are focused on telnetd are less likely to be ones who take security as a major concern.
