I know, the telnet is underneath the ssh connection, internally on my
network, so it's not exposed.

 JH> telnet = protocol telnet client = application that uses protocol.

 JH> dude, speak english. so now you are looking for an icecast client

No!  That was just conversational additive.  I don't need that, I already
know it exists.  I'm trying to switch everything from linux to windows and
I'm running ezstream under linux, instead of windows.  That's all.  I don't
need help with that.

 JH> also your bbs tagline says you support ssh

I have ssh from a linux machine, which then internally telnets to the bbs.
It is secure, because it's within my internal network.  I'm trying to do this
from within windows, not linux.

 JH> if you want security you could run a synchronet bbs and have ssh only
 JH> access. then it could forward to your local telnet port on your elebbs
 JH> bbs.

No simpler than what I'm already doing.
