| While I'm here, I'd like to say that I was surprised and very
| impressed with the performance of the Kinetics FastPath box in
| conjunction with TelNet 2.1 from the NCSA (anonymous ftp).
| Although I was a little disturbed when I discovered that you
| could 'put' a file onto a mac with such important names as
| "DeskTop" and "System"--not even so much as an error message
| before they were blown away!

You can also configure NCSA Telnet on your Mac so that remote
access requires a password.  It's not great security, but it is
better than nothing.
