Why not just run a term server/client thing on your own account and just 
go thru the trouble of settin gup the desired protocol.  I know that they 
have IRC clients, FTP, Telnet etc.. ovr term connections already set up.  
As a matter of fact a freind of mine runs a little box that you can telnet 
too thru a term connection using "tredir" which is a term client that 
captures a port number on the host.  You have to have Unix on both ends to 
use it, so tuff shit if your on a messyDOS box.

Shooot, I have even seen where you can recieve and deliver mail and all 
thru a term connection, but for those you need sysadmins permission.  But 
if your just gonna have a few people telnet to or FTp to your box then use 
term, cause you wont need to notifythe sysop, since all the stuff is on 
your account.

term for linux is at ftp.cdrom.com, and also ftp.funet.fi i believe.
