You still have to setup sshd and appropriate user accounts. WRT Cisco you
would need something like Tacacs or RADIUS, which would also need to be
setup. These aren't exactly "point and shoot" either.
If you have trouble setting up kerberos, try kerbnet from Cygnus.
I grant that Kerberos is a bit more sophisticated, and slightly more
complicated, though.
Not to mention that there is also sslTelnet.
