Telnet port security

Hi
.
under windows XP we run telnet to access a sun server
another user with snoop command he can access my telnet
port 23 and watch all my work
.
how to restrict people to monitor my telnet port
we have to use telnet & TCP/IP protcol
is there any solution to protect the telnet port
.
thank you in advance

I am not sure what sun server will support, but you can try SSH or IPSec...

Another less secure option would be switched network...

After you secure your network look into firing the user for unauthorized
network scanning and looking for information not related to his work (if you
have such policy)...

IPsec would work well here. Solaris 8 and higher have an IKE-capable IPsec
stack that interoperates with just fine with IPsec in Windows 2000/XP/2003.

Set up an IPsec security association between the two computers. Be sure to
use ESP (encryption) with a key (as opposed to ESP-null that has no
encryption). Now you can continue using telnet but the traffic on the wire
will be encrypted.
