This actually extends the Socket Java class giving an opportunity to go via an HTTP proxy server with HTTP Basic authentication (BA). By itself, this program would be useful for receiving information in a command-line interface (CLI). Feel free to find another use for this class.
Just a simple telnet server for those who have none. Written in Java this telnet server relys on telnetd2 from Dieter Wimberger as basic framework and adds a shell that runs on Windows and Unix.
