Mike Dynamic Connect, wIntegrate and SBClient support this - otherwise you would need to adopt one of:
1. use a separate 3rd party product with SSL support. Or 2. Change the source code of the emulation package of choice to use OpenSSL (or equivalent) and recompile the emulator source (ask the supplier or modify the source if you have it and the right to make changes) Or 3. Create a "Middleware tier" sitting behind your "terminal emulator of choice" that you can telnet to in plain text (e.g. localhost / port 8023) and this middleware tier can then encode / decode plain text to encrypted text and voice versa. I would suggest a modem-style command interface for ease of use and compatibility purposes, rather similar to ComIT of memory. E.g. atdt 192.168.0.4 (IP address instead of telephone number). You would also need to specify that the SSL port is used (992 by default). This could be by further extension of the AT commands. E.g. ats0=992 This would be a generic piece of middleware that would let ANY TCP based software connect via SSL acting as a proxy service from a local PC. This would however be a substantial piece of work. Anyone fancy taking it up as a skunkworks project?

What terminal emulators have you used? Is there any documentation on writing a wrapper or adding code to an existing terminal emulator to make the SSL connection? Our goal is to secure the telnet connections that we are using until all users transition to the secure web site.
