I am able to telnet to my W2k machine that is running in.telnetd with CYGWin's inetd by telnetting FROM my CYGWIN GUI..but if I used eXceed's telnet then after the MOTD the telnet accepts no more input.. using MS's telnet it doubles my CR's on the login and assumes the second CR was a password. Is there a default character set other than vt102 that CYGWIN expects for in.telnetd? -Todd -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
