    MCTelnet - A telnet server plugin for bukkit.
    Current Version: v1.2.7

    First off, this is not a wrapper, its a simple plugin. Plop it into your plugins folder, tweak the config file and your good to go.

    Features:
    • Ability to access the server console from telnet.
    • Requires username + password on connect.
    • Port can be specified in config.yml
    • Additional users with different permissions can be set up.
    • Passwords can be encrypted in the config file (md5).
    • Contains a "sudo" command that will elevate you to the root user.
    Configuration:
    Sample Config File:
    Code:
    #Setup information
    encryptPasswords: true
    listenAddress: 0.0.0.0
    telnetPort: 8765
    allowAuthlessLocalhost: false
    #Root login information
    rootUser: console
    rootPass: abcd
    rootEncrypted: false
    #Other users
    users:
        bekvon:
            log: true
            password: abcd
            commands: list, plugman, help
            passEncrypted: false
    
    Instructions by ScorchRaserik:
    Todo:
    • Possibly implementing usernames to log on with. Done
    • Possible Integration into Permissions. Not really possible right now.
    • Make config file write default values if missing. Done
    • Code cleanup
    • Make passwords hidden as you type (almost done).Done
    • Optional idle-timeout.
    • Sudo command (similar to linux). Done
    • Encrypt passwords in the config. Done

    Hello,

    This plugin is excellent, however, the latest RB of craftbukkit seems to have broken it. I think it has something to do with the permissions system for built-in commands, as I cannot execute any op commands -- even with the root account -- including save-all, stop, kick, and etc. Instead, I get the error "Sorry, Dave, but I can't do that for you." or something along those lines.

    Would really look forward to having an update. Some say I telnet more than I play on our server!

    Think I got it fixed now :) Indeed it was the new bukkit permission system getting in the way. I may or may not have to make a few more tweaks to this later.

    Fixed for a lot of commands, however, I still get "You do not have sufficient access to reload the server." Good progress though, I can live with this for now.

    Oops, another bug: I use the WelcomeMe plugin and MCTelnet is now spitting out the literal colour code characters, instead of something that just didn't have any colours. However, while the colour code character is "&" in the configuration file, it appears as the squiggly S character in the console. Obviously, this didn't happen in earlier versions. If it matters, both the server and client are running Windows; I use putty (anything else, like netcat or default telnet gives me more garbage characters).
    Code:
    :§9W§ae§b§cl§dc§eo§fm§9e §at§bo §cG§di§fb§9s§at§bi§cc§dk§7'§fs §9s§ae§br§cv§de§fr
    
    Edit: This occurs for all console text that is supposed to be coloured.

    Would it be possible to implement an SSH version of this?

    Love the plugin. I am going to be moving my server onto another system that I will only have remote access to. I hope to use this to maintain control of my server. Bu I noticed a few problems.

    ? - does not work
    and " Quotes do not seem to work. I tried to issue this command and it translated it to...

    lb lookup chestaccess world "world" ---> lb lookup chestaccess world world

    As others have noted is it possible to strip the color codes?

    Thanks for the good plugin!

    I'm getting "Invalid Username of Password" from putty. Also nothing is displayed when I type the password, but I'm thinking that's the way it should work. Any idea what may be wrong? I tried several configurations/passwords/etc. I'm using Xenon servers for host.

    When you change the password, make sure you also set passEncrypted (or rootEncypted) to false. Then when the server starts up, the password will be automatically encrypted and the setting will be set to true. You can also force local echo with putty if you need to see what you're typing.

    @bekvon
    I'm using the newest version and I'm getting a bunch of ? marks where there should probably be a color code or something similar.
    Example:
    Code:
    ??"??"????[MCTelnet] - Session Started!
    Username:console
    ????Password:password
    
    ????Logged In as console!
    
    Any ideas?

    Also I get an error saying I'm not allowed to use a command when managing permissions. The permissions plugin is Group Manager (yes I know it's old).

    Like some other MCTelnet plugin users, I'm getting the following error:

    Code:
    2011-09-09 02:16:50 [INFO] [MCTelnet] - Starting Up! Version: 1.2.6 by bekvon
    2011-09-09 02:16:50 [SEVERE] [MCTelnet] - Unable to Enable! Error: Address already in use: JVM_Bind
    It was working fine but the server host changed the IP address so I had updated the config.yml file with the new ListenAddress and add the port reopened at the host.

    What am I missing here?

    Thanks! Still working great, and it seems the issues with not having permissions have been solved by bukkit.

    Using CB 1550 and MCTelnet 1.2.7 I am no longer able to write broadcast / say / tell. I can kick using telnet but I cannot send a broadcast. It shows up correctly in the log but it does not show up ingame at all.

    Which plugin do you use for those commands? CommandBook 1.7 does not work as of 1597.
