If this were a normal ethernet circuit (or thinnet, etc) I would just set
up sshd and turn of telnet. Unfortunately I don't know how the FCC would
like a bunch of encrypted ham packet traffic. I don't think it's possible
to selectively control what part (ie login, email) you want encrypted...
it's all or nothing. Unless someone knows more certainly on the issue of
encryption we may have to take the risk that a cracker will filter ham
packet traffic with his scanner and telnet to you gateway system to cause
havoc. Interesting dilemma, and I think the answer is no encryption. 73
