RE: Secure Telneting into a internal network

["Allen D. Harpham" <aharpham @ cnweb . com>]

Hi All,

Whats a safe way to allow people to telnet into a network past a firewall
from the Internet?

I have a client that if possible, needs to allow employees to dial up a
local ISP and telnet net into their internal network over the Internet.

We have a packet filtering router setup now, and have proposed adding a
proxy server in addition to the packet filter.

I have warned them that allowing any telnet sessions in would be a big
hole in the firewall, but they would like to pursue this further.

Any suggestions?

TIA, Allen
