This program suports both certification and cryptogoraphic with using SSL. If you do not have certification (/usr/local/openssl/certs/telnet.pem) provided by CA, this port make dummy certification. Of cource it is useless to certify but you can use SSL telnet/telnetd in encryption only mode with it. You must edit /etc/inetd.conf to make SSL telnetd available. Some examples below: 1. Accept both normal telnet client and SSL telnet client. telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/telnetd telnetd 2. Accpet only SSL encrypted client. telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/telnetd telnetd -z secure 3. Accept only SSL certificated client. telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/telnetd telnetd -a valid
