You do realize that telnet is sent in clear text, correct? Which means if this is accessible via the Internet, you're virtually asking to be hacked. A simple sniffer will pick up your user names and passwords.
I , too, would suggest using a more secure connection of some sort.

net::irc::dcc
DCC(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation DCC(3pm)
NAME
Net::IRC::DCC - Object-oriented interface to a single DCC connection
SYNOPSIS
Hard hat area: This section under construction.
DESCRIPTION
This documentation is a subset of the main Net::IRC documentation. If you haven't already, please "perldoc Net::IRC" before continuing.
Net::IRC::DCC defines a few subclasses that handle DCC CHAT, GET, and SEND requests for inter-client communication. DCC objects are created
by "Connection->new_{chat,get,send}()" in much the same way that "IRC->newconn()" creates a new connection object.
METHOD DESCRIPTIONS
This section is under construction, but hopefully will be finally written up by the next release. Please see the "irctest" script and the
source for details about this module.
AUTHORS
Conceived and initially developed by Greg Bacon <gbacon@adtran.com> and Dennis Taylor <dennis@funkplanet.com>.
Ideas and large amounts of code donated by Nat "King" Torkington <gnat@frii.com>.
Currently being hacked on, hacked up, and worked over by the members of the Net::IRC developers mailing list. For details, see
http://www.execpc.com/~corbeau/irc/list.html .
