Recently, some people here have begun to grumble about the insecurities of
having user passwords transmitted in the clear during TELNET sessions, FTP
transfers, etc. I was wondering what solutions other places have devised to
deal with this problem. I'd appreciate any information that TCP-IP readers
have and any pointers to more information.
