Yes, I can create a tunnel over, but not forwarded onto another IP, rather need a bash prompt. So that the telneting program can call bash commands at the remote linux box.
The goal is to not simply tunnel the telnet. But rather translate it. Noting that telnetd is gone from the remote linux box.
Netcat is there, so “-t” will answer TELNET negotiation in place of telnetd.

On the windows box, use putty to create a ssh tunnel to your Linux box. This way nothing is transferred unencrypted over the network.

I have closed source programs that telnet on windows boxes. Where I am constrained to Linux Jump servers. That now only have SSH. The Telnet is GONE on the jump servers. The closed source programs once connected (formerly via telnet) to the jump servers then know who to issue the commands to ssh into the remote targets.
I need a way to translate Telnet to SSH on the jump servers.
The netcat on the jump servers do not have the –e option, so I cannot run nc in telnet mode into /bin/bash.
I have found
mkfifo pipe_name_in
mkfifo pipe_name_out
nc -l 5555 < pipe_name_out | /bin/bash > pipe_name_in
which kind of works. However, the Standard Error does not go down the pipe.
So I don’t get any echo or prompts, only the response.
nc -l 5555 < pipe_name_out | /bin/bash 2> pipe_name_in
does get the some of the prompts but then no responses.
nc -l 5555 < pipe_name_out | /bin/bash 2>&1 pipe_name_in
fails to allow connections.
Any suggestions or solutions?
