Hi,

I need to solve this problem:

1.I have Gentoo based firewall :-)

2.On intranet (behind Gentoo) are some devices to which
  only telnet access is possible (SCO crappy server,
  routers ...) :-(

3.I need a solution, which allows me to connect to these
  intranet devices from Internet (all the world) using
  browser only.
  It must be possible to connect even from another firewall/proxy
  server protected network, so it can't use ports connection
  which will not pass through.

My idea is, that on firewall I will run a servlet (on Tomcat
or JBoss), client will be browser (Mozilla) with java/applet
support.
Browser connects to servlet and downloads/starts applet.
Servlet connects to a device.
Applet-servlet (encrypted) communication will run only on
regular http connection...

Any hints ?

Have you considered using webmin for that?

No, I didn't know it, but tried it few minutes before ... it looks to be a good tip :-) thanks, but it doesn't work yet ...

I installed/started it, connected to port 10000 and run "module
SSH/Telnet Login".
(Later I plan to install "usermin" for apache compatibility.)

In "Module config" I set up ssh connection to 127.0.0.1, and tested it.

Login pop up window showed, but after putting proper name/password,
only "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_3.9p1" appears on the screen (three times) and it
freezes.

If I put wrong password, the output is the same, but terminal window
closes and pop up window reappears.

"ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]" fom command line works properly.
I'll check tomorrow what's going wrong.
