Hello Everyone

I'm a Dream user in Canada, and I know that telnetd doesn't ship with my unit. I have a some unix experience, and I'd be interested in telneting to my phone via my desktop.

When I shell into the phone (adb shell), I see there are several unix/linux commands (ie, top, netstat, ifconfig) and this makes me think I could technically run the telnetd deamon on my phone via the adb shell.

With this, I'm unable to find a copy of the telnetd daemon in the sdk (maybe I didn't look hard enough), thus I would like to request that someone dump a copy of the telnetd add from there phones..

I suspect the pull command would look something like...
adb pull /system/bin/telnetd c:\

Or is there a better way to "shell" into the phone, does an sshd exist for android? Thanks!
