Hi

One of our client is very much stick to use the telnet in their server. But for security purpose we are trying to convince them,

asking for security level only...


That won't make the system any more secure.

I think I would politely refuse to provide support for that server. Or at least make them sign something absolving you of responsibility when it gets rooted. Telnet can't be made secure. And there is a very simple drop-in replacement: ssh.
