Thanks Phil.

This is the one that I had been hoping to use.
I followed through the instructions (months ago) and it needs to
connect to the host via telnet.

There is no place to add a user / password to log in to the machine with though.
So how did you configure things on Ubuntu side to accept the connections?

I posted about this on their support site on June 16, 2008, but there
were never any responses.
Do you know what (if any) additional packages had to be installed to
get this working?

Thanks,
Dave
