	You could use a terminal server or a TRouter as a telnet/rlogin
gateway.  Or maybe as a telnet/LAT gateway.  Of course, it's not too
transparent, since your users have to login via telnet and then log
thru via rlogin or LAT.

	But I would say that that qualifies as Level 7, so the answer
is "Yes.  All models."
