No, no, no!  If you have 20 unix servers then this is likely not a tiny
company.  Most security breaches (according to the FBI/CSI computer
crime survey) are perpetrated by insiders.  If you log in using telnet,
and have to enter passwords that allow configurations to be changed,
then anyone on the local net can get those passwords.  Use SSH instead.
 Even SSH with passwords is hugely more secure than telnet.
