I was wondering if there was anyway to create a user that could only

telnet to login from a windows machine to do some work with the gcc. I
dont want to have to expose my machine to unnecessary security risks, so
I was wondering if I could create something like one time login name and
password pair, so that even if someone did obtain the user name/password
pair from sniffing off the net, they wouldnt be able to use if cause it
would be deleted off the system. I dont know how clear I have been or
if it is even possible, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Why not just use ssh and a windows ssh client like putty?

Well yes that would be the ideal thing to do, but unfortunately the
windows computer that I have to use is a university machine and I cant
install stuff on it. I wish I could just install ssh, but they just
wont let me. Any other ideas?

Putty doesn't need to be "installed". It's just a standalone executable;
put it on a floppy or on a network share that you can access and boom,
you're live and good to go.
