No it hasn't changed. However, if we put our domain, then our firewall
directs the telnet session to the correct system. If I put the internal IP
address, the telnet session is directed to the HTTP server, which allows
telnet connectivity for non-root users, but they can't do anything other
than start a VNC session, an X-session (not on win32) or PINE and read
email.
