I think that the only difference is that on SSH the password goes
encripted and on Telnet it goes in plain text.
But if there is no sniffer outthere, the probability to have your
password broken is the same on Telnet or in SSH.

You can use public key pairs or certificates.

logging on SSH this one becomes really strong.
thanks again.
