Someone on this list seemed to want an exhaustive list of telnets
with encryption capability.  Here's a bit more info.

Cygnus also has a working (i.e. much improved) NCSA Telnet for
MS-Windows, if anyone cares.  It does Kerberos authentication (K4, or
VERY recently, K5), but doesn't yet do encryption.  We expect to add
that within a month or so.

The Cygnus K4 release includes Unix telnet and telnetd with full
support for K4 authentication and encryption (and without the security
bug).
