The most recent version of PuTTY supports SSH2. PuTTY is a single executable
and it's not too big. Putting a copy on each box should be no problem. If
you like you can set it up once, then export the registry settings from
regedit. That will create a plain text .REG file that can be double-clicked
on any other machine to install the settings in to that registry.

SSH is the way to go. I'd make the in.telnetd file non-executable and change
it back later if I ever needed it. SSH is just too easy with PuTTY and
OpenSSH to justify taking risks with telnet. There's an article in the
current Linux Gazette <http://www.linuxgazette.com/> about using SSH.
Just my $.02.
