Sorry about the previous post from M$ Outlook, I had no idea that it was not
in plain-text format.  Anywho.. here goes the email -


Hello all,

What is needed to get telnetd to work?  I have login working properly and
would like to run telnetd as a standalone app.  So, I start up using the
command line -

            > telnetd -l /bin/login

I have also tried   >telnetd -l /sbin/getty

Each time I connect from a different machine, the session just hangs until I
hit a key.  At this time, the connection drops.  Any idea what could be
happening here?  I am using the latest 2.6 kernel (if that makes any
difference).
