Anyway, that was my task at work and there is <strong>no</strong> security concern. Before you post your comment, this is my technical notes and I don't need people telling me that telnet is insecure. The idea of this blog is to share knowledge that is probably not documented elsewhere. I know what I'm doing, people. For those who need this information, they should know what they are doing and know the risks involved by using telnet.
