Juicessh ap for android has telnet. I use it for my vax boxes.
If you are concerned about connecting to the internet, the biggest risk is
having a nail server running. Usually when bots probe for telnet hosts
they dont attempt a vms style login, so it's not so risky just to have a
vax running vms in and of itself.

The VAX doesn't have SSH only insecure TELNET. Another can of worms,
SSH on the Vax?
You might do what I do--isolate your vintage/old machines on their own
sub-net with no connection to the outside. It's not as if you'll do web
browsing on the VAX, after all.
ftp and telnet word for me.
