SSH is a much better way to talk remotely with a unix based machine. Everything (including your login id and password) is encrypted. Plus the SSH suite includes sftp with is ftp without the clear text passwords flying around the internet. Also, I believe that the newer versions of TSM have 128 bit encrypted Web administration as well. Installing SSH on AIX is a little tricky, but not horrible. I think IBM has instructions on thier website.

I'm not familiar with this 'remote admin' concept. I was told not to use Telnet because is not secure at all. Some suggested VSN + SSH. Can anyone share some insight? Thanks for your help!
