If you were a script kiddie scaning for windows boxes with bo1 installed and you found one. So then you use your l33t skillz to port scan that box, and you find out it is really Zinc Unix, but wait it has the Mac filesharing port open... You would get confused and not know where to start. This way i have it all in my logs and I can see it. And no screw red hat, Slackware 8-D. And my box is secure, I run and FTPd for a non root account, i've changed some of the strings in it so no one can tell what FTPd it is. My firewall filters out invalid ips as well as blocks ports i don't want people to look at. Telmet is just another attempt to secure it. It more secure with it than with out, imho. If i wanted a fake telnet client to steal passwords i could do it in perl, thats not my problem, my problem is echo of with IO::Sockets. with STDIN/OUT it's easy enough, i won't say how because of "the script kiddie threat"

And about BSD, I'm going to build a new box some time soon, then i'll set this box up with Open or free. I have a Free cd but I think it's badly damaged, When i try to install the speed starts at like 500KBps then it slowly drops to like 1. Now off a CD that is just way to slow. But thats another matter and another board.
