As I see it you have these options:

1) Open Telnet on 23 from the world. Not such a good choice.
2) Create a self-signed cert in DCM and assign it to Telnet. Then use Port 992 and you are secure. Not sure why people think this is hard.
3) Purchase a third party cert and load it into your i and use that to secure Telnet.
4) use SSH port tunneling with say putty on port 22 and let that encrypt your traffic.
5) Use a VPN
6) Something else that I didn't consider. The possibilities are endless.

Does anyone know if you can configure telnet on IBM i to use certs created
by openssl commands? Trying to automate telnet SSL configuration with a
shell script (and at the same time move away from DCM).
