Thanks for the reply and help Robin and i like the way you've analyzed my question, which gave me good understanding. sorry, i should have give more details.

My question was
How can we make "telnet sessions" secure ? or would like to have secure telnet sessions like SSH. (encrypted/secure)


Thanks for the reply and your help Bakunin and please see the below links related to other OS. yeah, as you mentioned we usually use SCP,SFTP and SSH for regular day-to-day work.
but would like to know about securing telnet sessions using SSL or any other security mechanism.

I found something on google, not able to post URLs here. could you please google "Configuration details for securing Telnet with SSL" & "Telnet server and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)".

Please see the very first IBM links for each search.

appreciate your time.
