 Does anyone know if a TCP add-on or a TCP package exist for DUNIX
 that will use Secure Telnet/FTP connections? We have Oracle DBAs
 logging into the OSF server from all over campus! Their username and
 password are transmitted in plain text over the network for anyone
 to grab. They also insist on doing `su -'. As the system manager
 for the OSF systems, I am worried about security. I thought with
 a Secure/IP card, one could assign a one-time only password.

 How do others manage security over the network?

 Thanks for any info.
