        I would not advise clear text passwords over the net. Most
implementations
        I have seen involve either encrypted sessions with certificates (or
shared secrets
        or something) or they put the terminal server behind a host that has
encryption(ssh)
        on a private network.

I am using linux 2.0.36, squid, and ipfwadm as a firewall.

I am putting terminal server inside the firewall.

I want people to be able to come in from the Internet and access it.

I would also like them to be authenticated.

anyone know of possible solution?

thanks,

      Don't know if you've solved this but most term servers will allow
you to use
passwords on your ports, I know that the Annex supports this. Be advised
that you
would be doing a non encrypted connection though.
