Yes, you can use ICS SSL for telnet, most of the protocols like HTTP, POP3, FTP control, etc, are telnet based, sending textual command lines back and forward. SSH was originally implemented on Unix/Linux for remote command line access, but it is less secure than SSL since there are no certificates to prove identity. > My application is client-server based, and i am now desiging the > connection, in which i do commandline-type commands and menu's. If you are designing client and server, forget SSH and use SSL, but beware you'll need to generate certificates for all servers.
