Probably not, but I just don't install telnet anymore.  I guess that 
doesn't make a lot of sense since I am mounting a share, so I've got 
portmap running an such.  Similar security concerns regarding that 
solution.  I guess I can install telnet.  I've just gotten so used to 
doing the ssh thing. :)

That's an interesting possibility.  Although, it's on my internal lan, 
two firewall machines away from the dsl connection, so it'd probably be 
easier to just do the telnet thing....

Hmmm, I guess I could fire it off from the console, directing it to the 
proper display, but I'd plan on running this thing headless.  Serial 
console's a possibility though...

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
