I am sooooooooo sorry about that, Chris. As Bill Clinton and George Bush have been made to concede to a past dark secret publicly, I will state that one time four laptops ago I used a telnet client on Windows 2000 to log onto a server once as proof of concept. But, yes, for at least 7 years I have used the tiny, handy 'putty' client for Windows to SSH to any *NIX servers I may admin in any way. And I use Remote Desktop Connection for WIN servers.
But your call out is deserved and well expressed, I will do time out in the thinking corner for that slip.

For the love of god, man, please don't telnet to anywhere using a wifi connection. Space aliens will be able to intercept your password years from now when the radio signals reach their galaxies, and then they'll 0wn you. And by extension, us. The survival of humanity in the future depends on your use of ssh, today. -- Chris Snyder http://chxo.com/ _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
